Claire Denis

I think a film noir demands a beginning and an end.

The only thing I find interesting is self-interest.

I have no relationship to the French bourgeoisie. I don't like connecting with them.

If you have a block of ballistics gelatin and a high-speed camera, pretty soon somebody gets a gun!

Most detective story readers are an educated audience and know there are only a certain number of plots. The interest lies in what the writer does with them.

You probably found 'How to Survive a Robot Uprising' in the humor section. Let's just hope that is where it belongs.
