Jean-Pierre Léaud

As he had so much respect for Marlon Brando and was afraid of working with him, all his scenes in Der letzte Tango in Paris (1972) were shot on Saturdays, when Brando refused to work. Thus, they didn't meet together during the entire shooting.

What I find great in his films, is the feeling of freedom, of truth, that feeling you get along with the camera. The precise intuition he has of the truth of tiny details. Sie küßten und sie schlugen ihn (1959), which I watch often, is full of details which give poetry to the movie.
