Mathieu Amalric's Quotes

• I don't want to be a star!
• Spending two days in a hotel doing interviews is not my goal. No, I could be with my kids. I could be making love. That's real life. Surprising my girlfriend, going to Lisbon for two days, you know, that's life. But I couldn't resist it. My two boys, who are 8 and 10 - I can't tell them one day that I refused to be the villain in a Bond movie.
• Cannes is a circus, so you have to have fun with it. Everything suddenly becomes funny. And the promotion of a movie - that's where you really need to be a good actor. You need to make journalists believe that what you're saying is just for them and you've never said it before, even when you're talking about the same film over and over again.
• There is the melancholy of Europe. There is the romantic malaise. Feeling sad is almost a form of deepness.
• Acting is about animality. It's great to be allowed to be animal. But I feel more alive as a director. Every morning, I have to write.
