I'm Very Happy In France Making Movies.

There's Always Been A Struggle With Filmmakers Between Art And Industry, And You Have To Find A Balance

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].

There Are Two Kinds Of Audiences. There's The Ones Who Were In The Theaters, And The Ones Who Are Outside And We Want Them To Come Inside The Theater. And, It's Not The Same.

I Think Being A Foreigner And Talking About Hollywood Allowed Me To Use Some Cliches And Some References That An American Would Maybe Not Use.

I Think The Writer Is Always The Creator, Because He's Starting With Nothing, But The Actor Comes In And Gives Flesh And Blood.
