The hateful reviews are very funny. And sometimes you can enjoy a hateful review much more than a good review.

I'm not from a lower social level, but I think I relate more to lower levels then to people who've got money.

You feel touched by a movie in a good or bad way or you have a strong reaction to something that's totally artificial, to an imitation of life. But that imitation of life that you see on the screen can affect you almost as if it was real.

Movies dealing with social subjects in France become very paternalist. They want to teach lessons. They don't show poorness like a normal situation.

If someone disturbs you... they didn't kill you, but you really feel like "I wish this guy was dead"... you know that you will not kill him yourself, but if he gets struck by a truck or by a train, you would really be happy.

People sometimes, they just stop because they see this scope movie. They say "oh, this is a real movie, this is not a TV movie."

I felt attacked because people rejected me. They didn't say "we can give you money to do something else if you want," they just said "no, this movie cannot be done" and I said "okay, so I'll do it!"
