Quote

Erotic movies - they don't even make it anymore. Even the erotic magazines don't really look like the ones you could find in the '70s. You have much more extreme iconography of what is sexy. It's very cold. There's nothing that links to real life.

Some people take drugs in a quest for spirituality.
Gaspar Noe
Image
You feel touched by a movie in a good or bad way or you have a strong reaction to something that's totally artificial, to an imitation of life. But that imitation of life that you see on the screen can affect you almost as if it was real.
Gaspar Noe
Image
You wake up because you killed someone and you're afraid of going to jail. And the moment you wake up you feel safe and it's over and you can meet that person in the street and you're not going to jail. The good thing about dreams is that they erase some kind of desire, because after your dreams you feel you've done it, and you're relieved.

I think it's more normal to make a movie dealing with love, sexual or not, than to make movies about bank robberies, which very rarely happen in real life. So I would say the problem is not what some people feel is normal, I would say the problem is why this whole industry is far more obsessed with filming scenes of dominance, guns, invasion.

If I had to go through a tunnel ten years without making any movies like Bunuel, I don't mind, as long as I did one good movie.

I'm sure if you were a Bosnian during the war, you would wish to kill Serbs. Just because it is the opposite of you and because they're aggressors. And also, it happens to me when I get attacked.

If you're a Bosnian and suddenly you get attacked by the Serbs, there's just one way of getting rid of your opponents. It's taking revenge and trying to fight as hard as you can.

The good thing about forbidding the death penalty is that society won't be able to kill people who are not guilty, but at the same time there are some people that are just such a mental mess that, you know, they will never get out of their obsessions and they can keep them forever.

I belong to the petit bourgoiusie somehow, because of my parents.

Image
It's not that I dislike the police, but I would never go to the police for anything. It's just that I prefer not..., not calling them.

France is a very paternalistic society where people have to be introduced.
Gaspar Noe
Image
The power that a president has in France is like the power of a king. In America, you know that his power is limited. Maybe because there used to be a king for centuries and now they're still behaving like they need a king.

I always think of moments of love with someone I love.
Gaspar Noe

I think that in the American film industry - or even in the European cinema - movies are made not to disturb any kind of class or any kind of minority.

You can put whatever you want inside evil and good in morality.

I feel very protected when I see a movie. That's why I like making violent movies or radical movies.

On an everyday level, I use alcohol and drugs in general mostly to be in a happier mood, with the people around me.

Make a movie that you can be proud of.

Most people feel aggressed by anything that is different from them.

I think there can be incestuous love.
