More quotes by Gaspar Noe
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
If I had a kid, and someone had touched my kid, I am sure that if I had a gun or a knife, I would go and stab the person who I supposed touched my kid.
Gaspar Noe
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.
Gaspar Noe
In England they need a king, in Spain they need a king, in France there is no more king. But they consider the president as if he was a king.
Gaspar Noe
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.
Gaspar Noe
War, sometimes you have to go for it, you know?
Gaspar Noe

I belong to the petit bourgoiusie somehow, because of my parents.
Gaspar Noe
I think British people for example can handle better their own poorness. The image of their poorness. But in France, people don't handle it very well. Either you are normal or ... if you are poor you better not show it.
Gaspar Noe
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.
Gaspar Noe
I think that wars will never stop, it's just that there are sides. You have to choose your side. And there are more progressive sides.
Gaspar Noe
My characters are never heroic. They are mostly lost and trying to find the right door to open and they end up opening the wrong doors.
Gaspar Noe
France is a very paternalistic society where people have to be introduced.
Gaspar Noe
I'm not from a lower social level, but I think I relate more to lower levels then to people who've got money.
Gaspar Noe
I always think of moments of love with someone I love.
Gaspar Noe
The hateful reviews are very funny. And sometimes you can enjoy a hateful review much more than a good review.
Gaspar Noe
Man is a moral being.
Gaspar Noe
Being poor is a normal thing.
Gaspar Noe
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.
