I've never had help from anyone, ever. I've never had this great director who saw themselves in me, because I'm a French woman in Hollywood. Who could identify with me as a successful director in Hollywood? Nobody. And the few people who could have been mentors, instead they just stole my ideas.

I'm dreaming about making movies for eight weeks, because it's a luxury. But time is money. That's the reality.

Maybe every family is dysfunctional, and that's the only thing in common throughout the world.
