Jean-Marc Vallee

I couldn't stand still at a desk for another year. I wanted to go out there and make films.

Just film what's there, trust what came before, one hour before, and make it easy.

Trust the acting.

I love Hindi films.

Recently, I was in Bernalda, my dad's ancestral home town in Italy. He has just refurbished a palazzo and turned it into a hotel, so we had my sister's wedding there. It was beautiful.

I've always been very determined, ever since I was a little girl, to make my way.
