You can't escape from what you are.
Vincent Cassel

I did direct two short movies. I learned many things, and one of the things I learned was that I am not a director. It has to be visceral, and it's not for me. I feel much more comfortable acting.

To me, Sheitan movie is the answer to all the problems we have in France concerning immigration. That is a fake problem people can actually work together and do something very interesting out of it.
Vincent Cassel
Image
Blood, especially fake, and guns, this is bullshit. It works in the movie, but on set it doesn't work for me.
Vincent Cassel
Image
I come from an acting family, my father was an actor, and I had to fight my way and just create my own identity.
Vincent Cassel
Image
Women? I'm still working on the subject. I haven't finished my studies. I would say I'm so happy that they're around. This is the salt and pepper of life. This is what makes me wake up in the morning - even more than work, really.

It was like a dream to me to suddenly get into the market with that kind of movie, like La Haine. It actually created my identity as an actor, that thing.

I wanted to be an actor to act, and now, being an actor, you have to dress up, you have to be nice, you have to be smart, you have to be sexy, you have to be ready.

Vincent Cassel
Image
I'm a little angry in life.
Vincent Cassel
Image
People look up to Jacques Mesrine as if he were a Robin Hood, stealing from the rich, but he never gave anything back to anybody.
Vincent Cassel
Image
There is this idea that its very different from the French point of view to work in America blah, blah, blah. But I think its different from one person to the other, not from one country to the other.
Vincent Cassel
Image
The only person standing in your way is you.
Vincent Cassel
Image
I've always loved the idea of changing myself, wearing costumes and disguises. It takes you back to being a kid, to dressing up.
Vincent Cassel
Image
I really like romantic comedies and light movies and everything but I think - I don't know where it comes from - but when you're doing violent movies, you're closer to reality.
Vincent Cassel
Image
The minute I started being recognised, I became much more discreet.
Vincent Cassel
Image
I think life is short, and you can't spend time doing things just to be on set to reassure yourself that people are not going to forget about you.
Vincent Cassel
Image
I was thinking of going to London drama schools or to New York, because France didn't accommodate the things I wanted to do in film.
Vincent Cassel
Image
The idea of telling a story in reverse destabilises your ordinary moral reactions. That's one of the points of art - to challenge your preconceptions.
Vincent Cassel

Perfection is not just about control, it is also about letting go.
