Worth remembering

Translation of an interview with Beatrice Dalle at Cannes 2007 - a l'interieur

  • Journalist CLAP-tv: Good evening
  • BD: Good evening sir.
  • P: Would you like to say a few words regarding our friend Julien?
  • BD: I can't stand him. In the next film I'm going to rip his eyes out for real.
  • P: How was your experience on this project?
  • BD: Terrible, it was a nightmare, I hated it and I hate both of them. I hate the film, I hate the whole world.... I'm going to promote another film cause I'm tired of talking good about them in every interview I do. I'm not myself, I'll take whatever film comes into my head and promote it.
  • P: Ok, could you at least tell us how you came to meet, cause it's been over a year and a half since we ran "pizza al ojo" on our channel.
  • BD: A little advert, "If you like dobermans and you need a doberman, call me". And they called me. That's how we met, on a website for zoophilia.
  • P: You can't say that on television.
  • BD: Why not? I'm sorry but it's the truth. That's the reality, the web site is ZZZZZZZZ... see? there, I didn't say it.
  • P: I'm a fan of horror films but there are people that don't like them and are going to criticize the film, what would you like to say to them?
  • BD: They can die... I don't care about the criticism about the project, about our games, about us. But then they criticize morality which makes me laugh a little. 'Don't send our troops to Iraq, don't send any troops in the world to Iraq', but they have nothing to say about film? You can't comment on a pregnant woman?... well of course you can't touch on a pregnant woman, but we're speaking of film... which is why Alison is still alive.
  • P: Are you attending the party tonight?
  • BD: I don't know, it depends on the check they're going to give me shortly.
  • P: An important check?
  • BD: Obligatory...
  • P: Can we know the amount?
  • BD: 200.000 .- €
  • P: That's good. Is it fair?.
  • BD: For appearing an hour and a half... and if I don't get my check I'll vomit on the whole world.
  • P: Umbrellas and raincoats may be necessary tonight.
  • BD: I think it's already there, they already have it ready. I do everything just for the money.
  • P: A nice word for our station CLAP-tv for beginning directors and actors?
  • BD: I hate new directors and actors, they are all terrible. That's it, that's my nice word.
  • P: You're very kind, thank you.
