The constant in my films is love stories. I consider love the chief business of humanity.

The perfect crime is when you push someone to suicide. I once read a study that said everyone in the course of their life has thought of killing someone.

It's funny: half my films were flops, half did well. It would be terrible if I'd had only success.

Shame is very painful to endure. For me it makes perfect sense that the character would kill herself.

People are too pretentious in France to like Sarkozy. But he'd be a fabulous president for America.

If you want to kill someone, you'd better pull off a perfect crime. Our security lies in the fact that that's damnably hard to do.
