I want to thank three person: I want to thank Billy Wilder. I want to thank Billy Wilder. And I want to thank Billy Wilder.

I'm very happy in France making movies.

An idea is something you work on to make it work and a desire is much deeper in a way.

I think the writer is always the creator, because he's starting with nothing, but the actor comes in and gives flesh and blood.

I only have one obsession - not to be boring.

Actually, I met a lot of directors and most of them have that fantasy to make a silent movie because for directors it's the purest way to tell a story. It's about creating images that tell a story and you don't need dialogue for that.

I can say is usually people are slightly confused. They think that silent movies are old. But, the fact is, they are old because they have been made in the '20s. That's the thing that makes them old. Not the format. The format is just a format. It's not an old format.
