More Quotes from Mathieu Kassovitz:
In France they spend six months training policemen, then they give them a gun and put them on the streets, and I don't know that that's enough. The film's not against the police - although I think that if someone wants to be a cop there's got to be a problem.Mathieu Kassovitz
We made it known that we were trying to show the reality of France. People think of Paris as the city of love or the city of light, but where you got love you got hate, where you got light you got darkness.
Mathieu Kassovitz
I know that there are police that are trying hard to do the right thing, and the film is also abouth the way that the police are treated by the state.
Mathieu Kassovitz
It's good that they've seen it, but how can I be satisfied after working for two years making a film which I hope will make a difference, when the government sees the film and does nothing about it?
Mathieu Kassovitz
I'm not a politician; I'm lucky to be a filmmaker and to be able to express myself through the films I make.
Mathieu Kassovitz
HATE, even if it's making money. is an underground movie, that's how it was made. It's a film about police brutality in the largest sense, it's about the whole of society and not just about the hood.
