I'm Not Wild About Hand-held Shots.

You Make A Film To Distract People, To Interest Them, Perhaps To Make Them Think, Perhaps To Help Them Be A Little Less Naive, A Little Better Than They Were.

To Observe A Profoundly Stupid Individual Can Be Very Enriching, And That's Why We Should Never Feel Contempt For Them.

It's Often Wrong To Write For Specific Actors Because One Ends Up Using What Is Least Interesting About Them, Their Mannerisms And Habits. I Prefer Not To Write For Specific People.

I Wanted To Make A Film About Stupid People That Was Very Vulgar And Deeply Stupid. From That Moment On I Can Hardly Be Reproached For Making A Film That Is About Stupid People.
