In France, I would like to worth with Patrice Chereau, who made 'Queen Margot.'
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I am not a great French woman. George Sand, Marguerite Duras and Simone de Beauvoir are great French women.
If I had been born in Paris in the early 1900s and lived through World War II, I feel like my DNA would've been Henri Baurel.
There's something Vichy about the French.
I must represent France, and I want to be elegant, and I want the French people to be proud of me, you know.
In a country like France, so ancient, their history is full of outstanding people, so they carry a heavy weight on their back. Who could write in French after Proust or Flaubert?
I don't care if Margot is a Dame of the British Empire or older than myself. For me she represents eternal youth; there is an absolute musical quality in her beautiful body and phrasing. Because we are sincere and gifted, an intense abstract love is born between us every time we dance together.
I hope to continue my friendship with France and its filmmakers for many years to come.
Every woman in America has a French dream in her head, especially a Parisian one.
I am the most un-French Frenchman you will ever meet.
There was a French singer, Francoise Hardy - I used to look at her pictures and try to dress like her.
