People who are poor, they suffer a lot. And people drink a lot and people take a lot of downers and there's a lot of unemployment.

Make a movie that you can be proud of.

In most cases, I don't know how much, I cannot say if it's ninety nine percent or eighty percent, but the problem with incestuous relationships is that they often come from frustration. And from need of power.

When you see a movie, it's like you're attending a show of magic in which the magician pulls a rabbit out of a hat. You don't know how he did it, but a part of you is fascinated, or hypnotized, by what happened, another part of your brain says, "Oh, I want to do the same thing! I want to be that wielder of that magic. I want to be that magician on stage, and do the same thing to other people."

When you start a movie... when it's a short, people don't care... but when it's a feature they want money.

I think British people for example can handle better their own poorness. The image of their poorness. But in France, people don't handle it very well. Either you are normal or ... if you are poor you better not show it.

Sometimes you have the chance to do one movie, make it the best you can, put everything in it.
