I know a lot of Americans in Paris who have married Frenchmen. They keep bringing up their experience, the clash of civilizations, the clash of personalities.

We can't connect with EVERY-one, sometimes there will just be personalities we clash with and we don't have to waste our energy in pleasing them

The American is wholeheartedly for love and romance at any cost.

When the franc was in danger of collapsing in 1956, it was the Americans who propped it up and their reward was to be insulted and swindled on the streets of Paris. I was there. I saw it.

I went to the Tokyo Film Festival in Japan because I love Japanese cinema.

Cinema will always have an important role to play in society.
