In fact, it is amazing how much European films - Italian, French, German and English - have recovered a certain territory of the audience in their countries over the last few years.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm really drawn to European films.
In Europe, there are many filmmakers working in the same territory: immigration, and the things that are most disruptive to European life today. That's not a judgment. I think it's good that cinema looks at such things.
So anyway, I really enjoyed the European audiences.
I love European movies and I kind of grew up on European films.
So, thanks God, our films, our first films were suddenly being appreciated by the Western media; especially France was very good, and Switzerland was very good.
I love European films in general. If I were to go to the movie store or something, that's what I like to see.
I'm of course disillusioned with what has happened to World cinema. Now cinemas in both Eastern and Western Europe are filled with the same blockbusters from Hollywood.
The French have got to understand that a film is so expensive that it can no longer afford to be regional or even national in scope.
This worldwide spread of recognition is insane. I was brought up in a small country. If you made a Swedish film that just got into a film festival somewhere, that was like the biggest thing you could wish for.
I'm very happy in France making movies.
