More quotes by Jean Dujardin
I can't speak American dog very well. There was a lot of improvisation with Uggie - like when I put the dog on the table or sometimes I follow him, sometimes he follows me. I had a lot of treats in my pocket. We worked with Omar Von Muller, the dog trainer. It was very easy because it was a big movie.
Jean Dujardin
I've never concerned myself with the labels people want to put on you. What matters to me is my own estimation.
Jean Dujardin
I watched Gene Kelly for his smile, for his energy. Vittorio Gassman for his movement. Clark Gable for his mustache. And I watched Lassie who was happy as a dog.
Jean Dujardin
I don't like having too many projects in the pipeline. I like to focus on what's at hand.
Jean Dujardin
Just telling a story. That's cinema. It's not silent, black and white. It's a simple story that's well made.
Jean Dujardin
Donald Trump is a danger for the world, and I will do everything to oppose the fear and hate that has settled in.
Jean Dujardin
I never think of the completed film, rather the adventure of what I'm about to live.
Jean Dujardin
I don't want everyone to like me, and I don't choose who likes me. You have to give them the choice, give them the option.
Jean Dujardin
I'm happiest on set because I'm not myself. I'm someone else. The moustache, the dinner jacket. It's not me. You're always this sort of double, and it's liberating. Imagine being stuck with yourself... all those doubts.
Jean Dujardin
I discovered that silent film is almost an advantage. You just have to think of the feeling for it to show. No lines pollute it. It doesn't take much - a gaze, an eyelash flutter - for the emotion to be vivid.
Jean Dujardin
I wasn't dyslexic, I was just very slow. I passed my time daydreaming.
Jean Dujardin
I don't want to become a superstar and not see my family anymore.
Jean Dujardin
In France, I have lots of opportunities. Maybe now I'll be offered films in America. It's the encounter, with the director and the story that counts.
Jean Dujardin
I love dancing in general and making girls dance. My generation doesn't do it enough.
Jean Dujardin
I recycle. I have a house in the south of France and I have a small garden. My name is Dujardin - 'from the garden.' I grow carrots, peppers, strawberries, green beans, and things for salads, but there are lots of wild boars all around and they steal the food.
Jean Dujardin
I like simple things. I like being in my family in the South and playing petanque.
Jean Dujardin
I don't represent myself as a star, but an actor who wants to make movies.
Jean Dujardin
