- Text from movie playing on-screen: Cinema is not magic. It's a technique and a science. A technique born of science and at the service of a will. The will of the workers to free themselves.
- René Vidal: So, we shoot in silent, too. But, it is not because it is silent that you must try to play more. You must play less. You must respect the silence.
- Zoé: It has to be tight, you know. Wait, it has to be very tight. It's the idea of the costume, right? Spandex costume, okay?
- Maggie Cheung: But, you are sure this is what René wants?
- Zoé: Oh, yes! Of course, that's what *he* wants.
- Maggie Cheung: It's just completely different from what I imagined, you know.
- Zoé: No, no, no. Look at the photo he gave me. This is the idea of Irma Vep. I say, it's like hooker. But, if he wants hooker, I say, it's okay. So, now we are in a shop of hookers.
- René Vidal: Again, I have this idea of you, in this part, in this costume. I thought it was very exciting. No. It's like a fantasy.
- Maggie Cheung: That's desire. And, I think it's okay; because, that's what we make movies with.
- Maggie Cheung: It's just a part. And, I'm playing a part and - she's fun. I enjoy playing her. It's like a game.
- René Vidal: No it's not a game! It's very important.
- Maggie Cheung: I think there are different audiences who like different films and there's nothing wrong with that.
- Maggie Cheung: Well, she has no morals. Yes. But, is that a problem?
- René Vidal: No, no. Not a problem.
- Maggie Cheung: So, you're not interested.
- René Vidal: I am interested in you. You! You're more important than the character. But, in the end, there is nothing for you to act.
- Laure: You really slept with Maggie?
- Zoé: Says who?
- Laure: Maïté. She's telling everyone you took her home, not to the hotel - and scored her. Those were her words.
- Zoé: I don't fucking believe it! What a bitch! That's total bullshit! I never even touched her!
- Laure: Don't tell her I told you.
- Zoé: Fuck that bitch.
- Zoé: I don't like American films. No.
- Maggie Cheung: I know what you mean.
- Zoé: Yes? I think everything is too much decoration. Too much money. You agree with me?
- Maggie Cheung: Sure.
- Zoé: And all this money, this big money, big dec...
- Maggie Cheung: And they're so lucky to have so much money.
- Zoé: Why? For what?
- Maggie Cheung: Zoe likes girls?
- Mireille: Yes. Yes. Yes, she likes girls. She likes furs. She likes latex. She likes you.
- Zoé: During her costume fitting, she seemed to get into it. Her costume is - pretty tight. All latex. It's like she was poured into it. Yeah. We were in the sex shop for God knows how long. It's the usual, but no zippers at the breasts.
- Mireille: I like latex.
- Maggie Cheung: Latex?
- Mireille: Yes.
- Maggie Cheung: Latex?
- Mireille: Like plastic.
- Maggie Cheung: Oh, rubber.
- Mireille: Yes, rubber, also. It's very sexy. Do you like girls?
- Maggie Cheung: Girls?
- Mireille: Yes. Have you sex with girls?
- Maggie Cheung: Actually, we don't get to see a lot of the big - I mean, a lot of the French films don't come to Hong Kong. And, maybe, the bigger films, we'll see with big stars like Alain Delon, Catherine Deneuve.
- José Mirano: I saw "Les Vampires" 30 years ago at the Cinémathèque. Irma Vet is Paris. She's the Paris underworld. She's working-class Paris. She's Arletty! Irma Vet is street thugs and slums! "Les Vampires" isn't Fu Manchu, right? It's not Fu Manchu.
