"In France, I have lots of opportunities. Maybe now I'll be offered films in America. It's the encounter, with the director and the story that counts."

I once fell 20 feet from a tree, was knocked unconscious, and when I picked myself up and straggled home, my parents thought I was making it up. However, when my brother and I fabricated a story about an encounter with a bear, they believed that! So maybe I learned very early on that fiction was more interesting to listeners!
