P: Regarding Bel Ami, you know that French people will be waiting with this movie with a knife between their teeth…
RP: I’m aware of that, believe me. I would never have the courage to do promo for this movie in Paris I’m so stressed. I met Marion Cotillard during a party before filming began and I asked her to read the script carefully because there was a perfect role for her. She asked me: “Why make Bel Ami in English? It’s weird isn’t it?” At that moment I understood how the film will be received in your country. I hope it will succeed and that you will be open minded about it. What impresses me is that the book is not well known elsewhere. I only discovered it after reading receiving the script and it immediately became one of my favourite books.
