'Jake Gyllenhaal is an incredible actor and such a nice person': interview with actor Alexandre Nguyen

It was a great experience to work with such a great and talented director as Daniel. He knows what he wants and how to get the best out of his cast. He’s really precise, clear and understands the actors he works with.

As in all team work, confidence is the key. So when he sees that you have absorbed and understood his direction, he lets you express yourself through your character and this for an actor is priceless. I am a huge fan of his work, but don’t tell him;) The funny thing is that we have a friend in common,Olivier Schneider ( http:// www.imdb.com/name/nm0773968/ ) which added to the extra ease of our working relationship.

Jake is an incredible actor and such a nice person. He was very focused on his character but still very kind and open to talk to. With the rest of the cast, unfortunately I didn’t have the opportunity to speak much or socialise with all of them because of our different work schedule.
