More quotes by Vincent Cassel

Vincent Cassel
The only person standing in your way is you.
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
I think American audiences like gangster movies. It's part of the culture.

It's now or never. This is simple to say, but then to live like that is not easy at all, I'm sorry.

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 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
Cronenberg's a lot of fun, and that a lot of people don't know watching his movies. He doesn't take himself seriously. He's still reinventing himself.
Vincent Cassel
Coming from Paris, I'd really like to live in Rio. I think it's gotten better. It's not as violent. The economy is better. The middle class is rising.
Vincent Cassel
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.
