'Many of my friends have urged me to write my autobiography...it is no longer enough for them to know that an artist has freely expressed himself with the help of a camera and a microphone. They want to know who the artist is...'
'The truth is that this individual of whom we are so proud is composed of such diverse elements as a boy he made friends with at nursery school, the hero of the first tale he ever read, even the dog belonging to his cousin Eugene. We do not exist through ourselves alone but through the environment that shaped us...I have sought to recall those persons and events which I believe have played a part in making me what I am'
-Jean Renoir (Film Maker) in his Autobiography.
