Horsemeat is the most male meat you can think of.

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.
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.

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

Man is a moral being.
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.

I wanted to do comic books... as a comic book artist, as an illustrator. But I'm not very good so I thought I should do something else! So I went to a film school when I was seventeen and came out when I was nineteen.

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.

From a simple, mammal perspective, you think you're going to make friends through the movie. You think, Oh, this kind of humor that I play with will bring people that have a similar kind of humor. I'll make new friends, or something. You don't even think in terms of audience or of money.

Sometimes I have better relationships with my barber then with people who are into cinema from an upper class.

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.

The hateful reviews are very funny. And sometimes you can enjoy a hateful review much more than a good review.

Image
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
Image
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.

Sometimes you have the chance to do one movie, make it the best you can, put everything in it.

I am not a police fan at all.
