I hope to continue my friendship with France and its filmmakers for many years to come.

I've been involved with violent movies, and then I've also said at a certain point, 'I can't take it anymore. Please cut it.' You know, you've got to respect the filmmaker, and it's a really tough issue.

I've had such a great track record in making a huge profit when the movies are smaller.

There is nothing like the way people feel after they've seen 'The Intouchables.' They feel amazing. The word of mouth on this film is incredible. It's intelligent-feeling good. You're not insulted by the low-browness or stupidity of some of the humor. It's so smart and terrific.

People love a true story and especially a true story where two people from opposite worlds come together.

I don't have to agree with everything a candidate does to support him.

I always find that when I do something that I like, from my heart, then it works.
