“A Touch of Zen it's really martial art movie making of Superior and poetic way I think this is the first film I'm going to see when I get a chance to look at the DVD cuz it'll Thrill Me...”

“Il Gattopardo, The Leopard, this magnifico, this is really a masterpiece...”

“Beau travail, Claire Denis, goddess. She got masculinity better than any man. Thank you Claire.”

“The Last Wave by the master Peter Weir. Peter Weir is a good friend of mine and we share a beach in Australia where I go and it's got David Gulpilil who was in my first film I produced Mad Dog. I'm looking forward to seeing this again. I remember all the water pouring out of the radio is magnificent shot.”

“The Rules of The Game, La Règle du jeu. I'm choosing this film because I haven't seen it maybe for 50 years 60 years and it was one of Bertolucci's very favorite films. He loved this film, he was talking about it all the time. Anyway I'm happy to have this, I'm very happy to have a very beautiful film by Jean Renoir.”

“One last, I've just seen it. There you go, the beginning of it all. What can I tell you? It'd be wonderful. Fellini, Federico, my hats off.”

“The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie, in fact I like that, but I've got three films here on Phantom of Liberty and That Obscure Object of Desire. Now Serge Silberman, who was my inspiration as a producer when I was growing up as a young producer, I was looking at this man and then I met him and he gave me advice. He said to me, 'Jeremy, you can only do well by using your own taste in choosing your projects. Never let anybody else choose your projects for you.'”

“I couldn't have a bag without a bag of them. Kings of the Road. It's got the best poo in any film, all I can tell you. It's got an incredible recommended poo, it's the most poetic poo in cinema.”
