Für den Film Comment hat Olivier Assayas einen Liebesbrief an den großen Jean-Pierre Léaud geschrieben. “Nothing in the current state of cinema seems to measure up to Jean-Pierre Léaud, for he evokes, instead, the prospect of a cinema that would only have been possible, and that only remains possible, because he is there to embody it, and because he is waiting for it.”

Ebenfalls auf der Leinwand taucht ein großer Filmemacher auf: Martin Scorsese.
