I've never really had a relationship with Hollywood. I've never had a desire to work there.
I've received some English-speaking scripts, but I was not interested in them.
I would love to occasionally do English-speaking films, but the script is as important for me as the director.
What I like about theatre is the responsibility you have with your character.
I think that if you do an American movie it's important to earn some money, but in a stupid way, to be respected.
I'm very interested in people, in general.
Even if I have only ten more years in front of me, it's such an intensive life. I have the feeling that I have already lived three lives in three years.
Usually, I read the script very often. I think that everything is hiding in the script.
I don't really know Hollywood, and I think that L.A. needs a bit of time to really know the city, because it's such a huge city.
I don't want to become more famous than what I am. I'm not interested in being in movies that are going to be shown all around the world and get a massive audience, so I'm interested in doing foreign movies as long as it stays an exceptional case and is exotic, but I don't want to go there[Hollywood].
I like actors who are themselves. I know in America you like actors who change their nose or wear a lot of wigs, and they like to take pretty girls and make them super ugly.
I understand that we cannot make other people happy when they are unhappy.
When I was a teenager, I thought nothing would ever happen to me because my childhood was so normal. I had this complex of normality.
I believe in God, but I am not sure to trust Him so much.
