It was a fantastic writer, and she followed her curiosity and she said to me, everything passes. At the time, it was a famous model the beauty by your curiosity. If you follow your curiosity, you'll be happy. And she was right.

I mean, it's a childish law. I should like theater.

A silent film, which I love. I love silent films, and I'm so sorry that the progress in technology killed silent because in silent film even more you relied on images. And I think film is a is an visual art. When you have words, it becomes you know, we've seen film talky talky talky, they are boring. So film is a visual art. And because they didn't have words, silent film really had to be powerfully visual and also pantomime the way of acting. And I'm saying sometimes it looks exaggerated from us, but if you look at Charlie Chaplin, it isn't exaggerated, but it's yet pantomime, and that art has died. And then I'm so sorry. So I'm a huge fan of silent movie. I'm a huge fan of Charlie Chaplin and The Circus. I mean, it's all about animals and Jacklin at all.
