It's interesting to help someone find their vocabulary. There would not have been a De Niro without a Scorsese.

I want to be an Asian Robert De Niro.

Nobody is more truthful when he's acting than De Niro.

Like De Niro. He's one of the best character actors we have ever had.

As a younger actor, I had delusions. I would dream of Scorsese and De Niro; I would meet people, and it would be like this, and it would change moviemaking in France, and Paris would become the center of the world.

I think if I met Frank Auerbach or Jeff Koons, I'd be more wobbly than if I met Robert De Niro!
