I love French style from the Thirties and Forties. French movie stars like Jean Gabin and Yves Montand had so much natural, effortless style.

When you have a bunch of scripts that you have to read, the less you have, the better it is, because otherwise, everything is already planned and I think that's a terrible feeling.
Vincent Cassel
Image
I used to be more self-conscious about style because when you're younger, you want to exist, you want to show everything you do.

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've always loved the idea of changing myself, wearing costumes and disguises. It takes you back to being a kid, to dressing up.

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.

You usually never know what you're going to do when you're making a movie.

I have a tendency to think that that stereotype of American movies and Hollywood movies doesn't exist. Of course you have the studios that have a very hard policy upon their artists, but then I haven't really been doing any real Hollywood movie yet.

I grew up watching 'Raging Bull.

I come from an acting family, my father was an actor, and I had to fight my way and just create my own identity.

When somebody is talking to you about something terrible on set with lines, and you believe what he says, sometimes it gives a strange vibe, because you wonder when that person is talking if he's talking about something that really happened to him and he's using the character.

La Haine - first of all, it was the story of friendship. I was very close with Mathieu Kassovitz he was somebody I met in the nights of Paris. And the hip-hop scene and all that... You know, it was very much about doing our own thing, and some of the subject matter was so close to what we knew and the people we were hanging out with.

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.

I'm a little angry in life.

I have a huge relationship with Brazil it's almost a love affair, I would say. And to me, to introduce that specific martial art like capoeira in Hollywood movies was something important to me.

I wear a lot of wigs as Jacques Mesrine. He'd wear multiple wigs and take them off one at a time to rob three banks in one hour.

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