More From Jeanne Moreau

There were a lot of people dreaming about making films, and they would finance maybe 6 films a year. because they were funded by the government, the films sort-of had to deal with serious social issues - and, as a result, nobody went to see those films.
Dream Government Years
I've made a way to allow myself to do big films, small films, dramas, comedies, action films, horror films, or whatever interests me, as a movie-goer. i like watching myself in movies. i want to choose movies that allow me to enjoy myself, the way that i want to entertain myself.
Drama Want Way
Free time keeps me going. it's just something that's always been a part of my life. i was originally a painter, and i made films sort of as an extension of that, and then i started to try to make dramatic films because the early films were experimental films.
Trying Film Dramatic
Some of these things i saw in foreign films - african films, cuban films - long before i decided to really go on this course as an actor. i started to think about what values i saw in those films that i wanted to bring to my projects
Thinking Long Saws
I'm interested in seeing films that confront me with new things, with films that make me question myself, with films that help me to reflect on subjects that i hadn't thought about before, films that help me progress and advance.
Progress Helping Film
Many people are under the delusion that i'm just a special-effects man, but i've worn many different hats in my day. on every film i've been involved in, i worked with the writer and producer. we really formulated those scripts. we tried to make films that were logical but still had the fantasy feel of it. i enjoy aardman animation's films with wallace and gromit, but they're obvious puppet films, whereas we tried to disguise it and make our effects characters in the films rather than obvious puppets.

After i recovered from 'lioness', i wanted to write something about animals because i really like mythical creatures, especially dragons. at 12, i was one of those semi-recluses who did better with animals than people. out of that, came the character, daine, who could communicate with animals.
Writing Character Animal
I was able to be distant by portraying another person, another character, if you will, and i found myself not stuttering and not having anxiety attacks when i was portraying another soul, another being, and i found comfort in that. i think many actors do, playing someone other than themselves.
Character Thinking Anxiety
When i commit to a role, i always tell myself that role is king. that's the bible. if i start to judge my character, than it's going to influence my performance, and i don't want that. i want to find the truth in the character.
Kings Character Judging
Once we realized that there were these 25 invariable types - the class politician, the frigid popular girl, the kid who tags along behind the jocks - once we came up with these key characters in a cloud of marijuana, the whole thing just came together. one of the things i'm really proud of is how much of a high-school yearbook it is in its look, so much so that hunter publishing had the art director, david kaestle, and i come for years to their annual convention and do a little talk on how not to do a yearbook.
