00:01Paul, aujourd'hui vous êtes le père d'un dynastie de cinéma de français.
00:07Let's talk first about your brother Jean-Pierre.
00:09What kind of man was he?
00:33Jean-Pierre was an exceptional being in the etymological sense of the word.
00:39He produced Jean-Yan's films, he produced Godard's films.
00:44Yeah, and others?
00:47People like Coppola, Foreman, Godard, people were fascinated by my brother because he had great intelligence.
00:56He was able to explain their film to them.
00:59It had to be done.
01:01Jean-Pierre Jean-Pierre Assam was a magician.
01:05He knew everything about cinema.
01:08When I showed him the very first version of Apocalypse Now, he slept through the entire screening, which lasted 3
01:15hours and 30 minutes.
01:18And as soon as he woke up, he spoke about the film in such an intelligent way.
01:24It blew my mind that he could talk like that about a film that he had clearly only seen with
01:28one eye while taking a nap.
01:32All I can say is that Jean-Pierre Assam was a genius.
01:44His incandescent life is a film script.
01:49I don't know if it's a serious one that I would produce to be honest, but he's a character.
01:54Yes.
01:55They say that you're ruined.
01:56That's true.
01:57I wanted to go broke and it ruined me.
02:00And what will become of French cinema without you?
02:04But what will become of them especially?
02:06I didn't know that he had been Jean-Pierre, so he was ruined and everyone felt sorry for him, so
02:11to speak.
02:12Not me at all.
02:13I was completely in awe and spoiled, but I was so fascinated by this man.
02:17It's an extraordinary love story.
02:19Yes.
02:20Yes.
02:21Yes.
02:23Yes.
02:24Yeah.
02:25Yes.
02:27Merci.
