If the guy behind the camera is not good, the pictures are bad. It's still you, and it's the same lines and everything, but it doesn't work.

More quotes by Vincent Cassel
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.
Vincent Cassel
I think American audiences like gangster movies. It's part of the culture.
Vincent Cassel
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
Blood, especially fake, and guns, this is bullshit. It works in the movie, but on set it doesn't work for me.
Vincent Cassel
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.
Vincent Cassel
The only person standing in your way is you.
Vincent Cassel
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
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.
Vincent Cassel
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
Neither of us are workaholics. I think the key thing is to accept that if you only exist through what you do, then you become what you do, and this is very wrong.
Vincent Cassel
I have learned that acting is not about beauty.
Vincent Cassel
I always had the sense of being in the spotlight, being on stage, being looked at.
Vincent Cassel
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.
Vincent Cassel
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.
Vincent Cassel
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.
Vincent Cassel
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
They say the day you lose your parents, you start to look like them.
Vincent Cassel
And now I have a big house, nice clothes and I travel in first class and I love it, so maybe it's time to enjoy being a star.
Vincent Cassel
I'm producing more, but I think to direct, one has to have a burning desire, and that's not me. I'd rather do something else.
Vincent Cassel
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
