I am not a police fan at all.

In France now, there's no problem with official censorship. Once your movie is finished, you always are R-rated. My movie is just R-rated in France. But when you meet French producers with a script like mine, they behave like the most fragile chickens in the world. They just tell you "Oh, no. You should cut this. You should cut that." And at the end you have been totally censored on the synopsis, and then on the script.

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."

If I had to go through a tunnel ten years without making any movies like Bunuel, I don't mind, as long as I did one good movie.

It's funny, when you start talking about primitive scenes, so many people have seen their parents having sex.

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."

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