Catherine Deneuve

I love vampire stories. That's why I did the movie. Women especially were taken with that movie-even more so when it came out on video.

I get irritated, nervous, very tense or stressed, but never bored.

Sometimes it's more difficult to do very simple, low-key films.

Well, I actually wrote her a letter a couple of days ago congratulating her. The tone I tried to convey in the letter is, look, you are a part of a great American historical process.

I've always had a natural fear of the police, or abuse of their power.

If you're not having a good time, find something else that gives you some joy in life.
