Actually, I only have a few friends in real life. And when I say friends, I'm referring to those people who I've known since the 1960s.

I don't get the romances. I did try - a film called 'Roseanna's Grave' in the 1990s. I liked it. But the audience didn't come.

Because I was born in Casablanca and my parents were from the south of Spain, I do not have a big central root in France. I feel French but in a few ways, not at all French.

Sometimes I take the watch, or I take the shoes, but usually the souvenir is to take the life you had with those directors, or the crew - the camera person, the lighting person. When you finish a film it's like a little death. You had a family for a bit, and you finish the movie and you probably will never see each other again.

The best way to impress a woman is to be the most honest you can.

Being proud and being nationalistic are, for me, completely different things.

There is no heaven on Earth. Not now anyway.
