I think it is a mistake to identify a movie according to its language, as if movies were literature.

When a French book becomes an international hit it is because of the author and not because of the language. The same goes for movies.

I make movies just as painters paint: I work where I can.

When you create a movie, you create something in your image.

The world distribution of French movies is a laughing matter. That is a fact.

The art of motion pictures is pictorial and language comes a distant second.
