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
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
I'm more attracted to the bad guys. Why? Because in real life, I don't know any good guys. I know okay guys. I know polite guys. I know people who can control themselves.
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 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
I love French style from the Thirties and Forties. French movie stars like Jean Gabin and Yves Montand had so much natural, effortless style.
Vincent Cassel
I worked with young directors all my life, only young directors.
Vincent Cassel
I liked the idea of working with Jean Reno and Mathieu Kassovitz there was something logical for me. I thought it was a good thing to do. Actually, The Crimson Rivers movie was a big success, and it was one of the biggest successes I ever had in France.
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 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
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.
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
People pretend to be nice, people pretend to be smooth, and polite and everything, but this is only an appearance, because the way we're built as human beings is only in paradox and contradictions.
Vincent Cassel
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
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
The only person standing in your way is you.
Vincent Cassel
It's now or never. This is simple to say, but then to live like that is not easy at all, I'm sorry. You have to be aware enough so that you can see situations as they pass in front of you and be able to catch the instant, whatever it is. Many times, you just don't see the moment when you were yawning and then it's too late.
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 don't really shop any more. I only do it when I have to. I think it is very overrated.
Vincent Cassel
You can't escape from what you are.
