I Love Silent Cinema But Don't Hold

People Inside The Theaters Usually, Not 100 Percent But Most Of Them, Enjoy The Movie. Usually They Come With A Small Negative View. In A Way, They're Prepared To Get Bored Because It's Silent And Because It's Black And White. So They Are Much More Pleased To Be Entertained In A Way. They're Very Happy When They Go Out. This Was My Job. For The Other Ones, I Can Do Nothing Except Screen The Movie And Hope That They Will Say To Their Friends That It's Not So [bad].

I Think There's Something In Common With The Oss 117 Movies. The Big Difference Is There's No Irony In This One. It's Not Parody. I Tried To Make It Very Simple. It's A Simple Story, But To Be Simple, It's Very Complex In The Way It's Done.

Sometimes I Think You Have To Try To Do Things That People Don't Think Are Doable. I Remember At The Very Beginning Actually, The First Person I Had To Convince Was Myself Really Because There's A Self-censorship. When Everybody Says 'we Don't Do Silent Movies Anymore,' You Agree With Everybody, And You Say 'yeah, You're Right.' It Was A Fantasy.

I Think Hollywood Is Cleverer Than You Think. I'm Not Sure They Will Do It. I Don't Think So, But Maybe I'm Wrong. When We Were Doing The Preparation Of The Movie, We Didn't Have All The Money So We Were Looking For All The Solutions Possible, And 3d Was One Option.

I Only Have One Obsession - Not To Be Boring.
