I think that stereoscopic 3D will have to continue to develop. It's still quite archaic because of the glasses you have to wear.

I like to make people happy, and with fairy tales, I can say anything I want to, but in an agreeable way.

I do my films the best as I can, period. I always hope that, gradually, my honest work will reach Americans.

The quality and success of Disney was actually bad for us animators because everyone on the planet thought that animation was only for kids and only in a certain domain. The big film festivals never thought much about animated films.

My producers give me total freedom. No one asks me for anything; they just tell me to make a good film, and that's what I do.

For me, the stereoscopic imagery was a new game to play with. Surprisingly enough, it's also a return to tradition. I'm back with paper-looking puppets moving about in several layers of theatrical backgrounds.

I won't tell you how many hours a day I work because you wouldn't believe it. But don't worry; I am in bed at 11 p.m., sleep well and get up early, without an alarm clock.
