Claude Chabrol's quotes

  • "I am a Communist, certainly, but that doesn't mean I have to make films about the wheat harvest." (1971 interview with Roger Ebert)
  • Nous vivons une époque où les pizzas arrivent plus vite que la police. We live in an era where pizzas show up faster than the police.
  • There is no new wave, only the sea.
  • [on his movie Ophélia (1963)] I saw it recently and it was still execrable.
  • [on divorcing Stéphane Audran] I found myself becoming more interested in her as an actress than a wife.
  • I have always been fascinated by smiling killers.
  • I saw 'Snow 'White' at least 10 times between 1937 and 1940 and I think it influenced my work, a little. It was a good horror film. The death of the witch was the best thing Disney ever did.
  • I'm not at all interested in who-done-its. If you conceal a character's guilt, you imply that his guilt is the most important thing about him. I want the audience to know who the murderer is, so that we can consider his personality.
