“One day Jean-Luc and I were sitting in a cafe in Boulevard St. Michel and we heard these two students talking about My Life to Live. One was screaming, ‘I love this picture!’ and the other one, who had his back to us, was saying, ‘I hate spending money on this kind of shit.’ And Jean-Luc tapped him on the back, gave him ten francs and said, ‘OK, you didn’t like my picture. Why don’t you go and see a picture you really like?’ The guy was very red-faced and apologetic.”

Anna Karina, 2004
