became changed
When I was 13 years old, I was dressing in a rap style. And then I changed schools, and the rap style became old-fashioned, so I changed it completely.
good work
To make a movie is very stressful, especially when you work with your father. You want to think the movie is good. Even when I don't work with my father, I want it to be good.
construct creating hard impressed johnny notion time
It's true I have a hard time with the notion of creating a character. And I feel it's a limit. I'm always really impressed by actors who are able to construct a character, like Johnny Depp.
feeling interest life understand
I like to be able to understand the feeling of the director, that a film corresponds to something in his life. Otherwise, it doesn't interest me much.
age changed choose mine people time
Some people choose their style at the age of 14, but I changed mine all the time.
criticized
My grandfather criticized me thousands of times, and he gave me a compliment once.
console consoles interested love movies weeping
I'm interested in existential films: I love movies that console you in the same way that a person consoles a weeping child.
bit reproduce sing
I'm not a singer, so I reproduce a little bit what I see on television and what I listen to on the radio. I don't have self-control, really, so I didn't want to sing like Mariah Carey.
I'm not usually comfortable to talk about things I haven't done yet.
change hours obsessed obsession realize spent start style trying
Every actor has an obsession with their hair. You can see it on set, and you start to realize it's completely silly. I can be very obsessed by my hair, but all these hours spent trying to style it are useless, because ultimately, you can't change your haircut. It's all the same.
couple children separation
The separation of a childless couple is dramatic, but the separation of a couple with children is always tragic.
