Vincent Cassel Zitate – Sprüche auf Englisch mit Übersetzung

Zitat des Tages von Vincent Cassel:

Hollywood, for me, is the studios. It's a way to produce. It's a different way to make movies, and I never took part in that.

'Brotherhood of the Wolf' is a very important movie because it represents something new. The director Christophe Gans came up with the idea of taking a French legend and making it some kind of really strange, almost Chinese action movie. The result is something that I haven't seen anywhere before.

I trained as a dancer when I was much younger, for a large amount of time, like 6 or 7 years. Not to be a ballet dancer, actually, but I thought it was a complement for an actor. I thought that actors should know how to move, should know how to juggle, should know how to do acrobatics.

Vincent Cassel

My father is best known for his light comedies, and I'm best known for crazy bad guys with short tempers.

Vincent Cassel

The day after I had my licence to drive, I made Paris/Nice at 230 km/hour.

Vincent Cassel

I spent a lot of time in boarding school. This is something I will never do to my kids. I think if you're having kids, then you have to take care of them; otherwise, what's the point? There are many things that parents say are good for the kids, but the truth is they say that because it is good for the parents.

Vincent Cassel

From my point of view, I'm a totally normal person! Really! I have a family. I have kids. I have a house... I don't have a dog.

Vincent Cassel

I think people have a misinterpretation of Method acting, because Method acting is a wonderful thing. The thing is, if you take it too seriously, it's like religion. You start to think it's the truth. But it's not the truth. It's just a way to get somewhere.

Vincent Cassel

What I think I'm perceived as in France is, like, I'm this leading man always doing strange movies because most of the movies I did, like 'Irreversible' or 'Brotherhood of the Wolf' and a bunch of others, and even in France, they always come out as a particular movie, not like the typical French kind of movies that people know most of the time.

Vincent Cassel

I wear a lot of wigs as Jacques Mesrine. He'd wear multiple wigs and take them off one at a time to rob three banks in one hour.

Vincent Cassel

I don't think France is a racist country, I really don't, but we do still have many problems with our immigrant past, and there's a shame that goes with that, that works both ways, in the host and in the post-immigrant generation.

Vincent Cassel

My problem is I can't show any of my movies to my daughters. It's tough. 'Beauty and the Beast'... they liked it. But that's the only one, really. Otherwise, they've always been dark or violent.

Vincent Cassel

My father danced a lot. He was called 'the French Fred Astaire.'

Vincent Cassel

I'm an actor, that's what I do every day. Dressing up is part of my job. But whatever you wear you should always be yourself: never go totally with the fashion but use what there is available to be an individual.

Vincent Cassel

I love Cartier. They are the classic French jeweller.

Vincent Cassel

My character in 'La Haine,' he's not bad; he's unhappy, and usually, people are like that. Most of us are angry.

Vincent Cassel

Instead of playing heroes and righteous people, I'd rather portray characters with problems of conscience who have to lie, to betray, and then have to cope with that. They feel more true to me.

Vincent Cassel

As a younger actor, I had delusions. I would dream of Scorsese and De Niro; I would meet people, and it would be like this, and it would change moviemaking in France, and Paris would become the center of the world.

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 come from an acting family, my father was an actor, and I had to fight my way and just create my own identity.

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

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

I have a physical background. It's not like I'm a kung fu master, but my real training was dance school, and through that, I move to this thing called Capruera that I used in 'Ocean's 12.' I can pretend that I can do a lot of things, but then, I don't really master anything.

Vincent Cassel

I love to act. And between action and cuts, when you work for somebody great, it's wonderful, and I still love it. The moment where you create, that instant is still magic to me. But, all the rest, I get bored with it - all the waiting, and the fact that you have to make appearances, that you have to share your life.

Vincent Cassel

I know that what I see in every religious person is not something I want to teach my kids.

Vincent Cassel

I was much more interested by clothes when I was younger. I'm about being discreet. What they call the French touch, whatever that means. Low profile and somehow elegant without being flashy.

Vincent Cassel

I'm a little angry in life.

Vincent Cassel

I still wear my trousers baggy as I did in my teens. But in a different way. I've loved trainers since my youth - limited edition, vintage, whatever. You could recognise people and judge their character through their trainers. I'm a Nike man.

Vincent Cassel

I was a dancer, and my father was a dancer, so I really grew up in that environment.

Vincent Cassel

I'm actually beginning to believe that there is something in common among all of my characters. I'm not sure what it is exactly. But I guess that something is me.

Vincent Cassel

If I have to pretend to be anything else than French, then I know it's work for me. It's not that it scares me, but it's work. I cannot just pop up on the set and say 'Okay, today I'm Italian!'

Vincent Cassel

Every movie, especially when you get involved... takes something out of you. You learn something, but you give something to the movie. And after the movie, if the experience has been intense and a true experience, you're a little different afterward.

Vincent Cassel

Female influence came from my grandmother and my aunt. They would sing Corsican love songs while cleaning the house and dress all in black and say melodramatic things like: 'I want to die.'

Vincent Cassel

The relationship I have to everyday life is very European. We have a different relationship with religion, with faith, with nudity, with sex, with food.

Vincent Cassel

I did direct two short movies. I learned many things, and one of the things I learned was that I am not a director. It has to be visceral, and it's not for me. I feel much more comfortable acting.

Vincent Cassel

Hollywood, for me, is the studios. It's a way to produce. It's a different way to make movies, and I never took part in that.

Vincent Cassel

You can't escape from what you are.
