I've always considered the French-speaking part of Switzerland as a province of France.

People come to Cannes just to advertise their films, not with a particular message. But the advantage is that if you go to the festival, you get so much press coverage in three days that it advertises the film for the rest of the year.

To become immortal, and then to die.

To me style is just the outside of content, and content the inside of style, like the outside and the inside of the human body - both go together, they can't be separated.

To be only spectacular should be 5 or 10 percent of cinema.

I don't think you should feel about a film. You should feel about a woman, not a movie. You can't kiss a movie.

Projection will disappear. And the possibility that was given by motion pictures will be missed. The possibility of there being a real audience - a group of people who have nothing in common, but, at a certain time of the day or the week, are able to look with other nknown neighbors at something bigger than they are. To look at their problems in big. Not in small.
