Olivier Assayas talks about Kristen with Arte (France)



The interview above is completely in French.

Olivier Assayas talks about Kristen with Arte France: "I met her in the best possible conditions, not during auditions."

"She quickly imposed a form of independence from American cinema, a freedom of movement, thinking, acting."

"Kristen is a superstar, she worked with the biggest directors, but after seeing her in real life I thought there're other things to do with her."

"A movie star with the virginity of a beginner."

He compares his collaboration with Kristen with the one he had with Maggie Cheung for Irma Vep.

He asked her Maggie to do things she had never done before, nothing extravagant, but nobody ever asked her to do things like that. And with Kristen, he felt that too.
