In France, I would like to worth with Patrice Chereau, who made 'Queen Margot.'

I wanted to be a lawyer. I love that job; I don't know why.

I hope each day to have done 10 seconds of good work that they can use in the film. And I'm always afraid I didn't get those 10 seconds.

I think that what people abroad want from French film, inside French film becomes our worst fear, “Oh, another film about love!”

As an actor I’ve played a lot of gloomy, romantic leads and even though I might not want to recognize it, I actually really have a sense of humor.

There’s a fashion, or maybe you could call it a necessity, in French cinema to make social films, which is to say films in which the characters are defined by their social context.

Paris, though it’s a very famous city, it’s very small, so people always tell themselves, “We’re gonna love each other in Paris.”

People always go to Paris for their honeymoon. It’s like they think because the distances are closer, it’s much warmer.

I tried to make a list of films where there’s two men and one woman and I realized there’s films like this everywhere.

There’s something about Paris, people just don’t have anything else do there but love each other.
