[Film] is better quality. It’s really as simple as that. I’ve heard, like, a million times, people explaining that digital is cheaper, that it’s lighter, that it’s better quality — I mean, it’s wrong. In terms of cost, it’s the same price. In terms of weight, it’s heavier and more complicated. And, in terms of texture, it’s not half as good as 35mm. So I’ve, really quickly, done the math.

As independent bookstores crash and burn in the United States and Britain, the book market in France is doing just fine. France boasts 2,500 bookstores, and for every neighborhood bookstore that closes, another seems to open. From 2003 to 2011 book sales in France increased by 6.5 percent.
