Each Actor Is A Very

The Silent Film Has A Lot Of Meanings. The First Part Of The Film Is Comic. It Represents The Burlesque Feel Of Those Silent Films. But I Think That The Second Part Of The Film Is Full Of Tenderness And Emotion.

Each Actor Is A Very Different Person, And Each One Has To Be Directed Very Differently.

The 1980s Really Ended For Me In 1992 With The Film Kika.

When I'm Writing, I Don't Put Faces On The Characters. When I Finish The First Draft Of The Script, I Start Visualizing, And Sometimes Then I Think About One Actor.

All My Movies Have An Autobiographical Dimension, But That Is Indirectly, Through The Characters. In Fact I Am Behind Everything That Happens And That Is Said, But I Am Never Talking About Myself In First Person. Something In Me - Probably A Dislike Of Cheap Exhibitionism- Stops Me From Approaching A Project Too Autobiographically.
