I love to do very long and complicated scenes. I like to have this impression that we are all working together, where you can see all the technicians and everybody is really doing the same thing at the same time. With close-ups, of course you have the crew there, but most of them are just around and it doesn't involve that many people.

I wouldn't say no to being in a film with Jude Law. I love English actors.

Film is a very young art that is still evolving. Soon, we shall reach a balance between content and technology.

This book was company for me - I wrote these things when I was in hotels, far from where I normally live. I never intended to publish it.

Actors have to be there and do the work, and that's enough.

It's very difficult for me to speak about being an actor.

Truffaut loved actresses, and he was very intense. All the actresses I knew wanted to do a film with him.
