“When I first came to the square, I looked around and saw such a beautiful actress there. And I asked where the director was, because I knew it was a woman, and I’ve worked with women in the past, but I didn’t know this one. And I saw a movie star and I wondered where the director was … And she told me: It’s me. So I thought: God. You should play in that movie, not shoot it, you’re beautiful, “he said.
