When humor can be made to alternate with melancholy, one has a success, but when the same things are funny and melancholic at the same time, it's just wonderful.

During the war, I saw many films that made me fall in love with the cinema.

The film of tomorrow will not be directed by civil servants of the camera, but by artists for whom shooting a film constitutes a wonderful and thrilling adventure.

The film of tomorrow will resemble the person who made it, and the number of spectators will be proportional to the number of friends the director has.

I have always preferred the reflection of the life to life itself.

purely cinematic film ... actually the purest expression of a cinematic idea.
