I think it's very boring for a director to always do the same kind of movies.
It's physically and psychologically exhausting to make a film.
You need to feed yourself with emotions and life or youll become empty.
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.
I would rather do really good French films than 'American Pie.'
It was really hard to find another project after my first film.
