" Yeah, I've been studying hip-hop culture since 1983, so I know about it. "

Mathieu Kassovitz

Mathieu Kassovitz
" When a young man becomes a man it is a miracle. Indeed, I have become a man, I got married, I became a father. So I said yes to Miracle. "

Mathieu Kassovitz
" Well, a special screening was set up for government officials, so they didn't have to see the experience of going to see the film. They certainly aren't going to the projects to see for themselves the situation. "

Mathieu Kassovitz

Mathieu Kassovitz
" Like anywhere, we had to make people understand that we were there with good intentions, and that we were there with respect. We started making contacts with the people in the neighborhood three months before shooting began, so that everyone involved was comfortable. "

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
" 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
" 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
" 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
" I have a hard enough time speaking for myself - I don't pretend I can be a spokesman for anybody. I have no interest in playing that role. "

Mathieu Kassovitz
" Hood films now are made by studios and have nothing to do with the reality they supposedly represent. "

Mathieu Kassovitz
" I don't want people to understand the film as being anti-police, but as being against any form of a police-state. "

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. "
