I would rather do really good French films than 'American Pie.'

It's physically and psychologically exhausting to make a film.

Music is one of the important things for me in cinema.

You need to feed yourself with emotions and life or youll become empty.

I'm an absolute fan of 1970s New York in films like 'Mean Streets' and 'Dog Day Afternoon.

Directing remains very psychological, and it takes a lot of time and reflection. When you're an actor, it takes less time, and you can express yourself physically.
