"Gaspard, so much light and so much love emanated from you. How I loved knowing you. And I vibrated so much by your side. You were and you will remain, by what you leave us which is so immense and so deep, a marvel of a man. It’s such a great pain to know you’re gone. I’m thinking of all those you loved and who will always love you. Travel in peace."

View all quotes by Gaspard Ulliel"Current obsession: Finding some used pack of 665 Polaroid film. It’s a black and white film with a positive and negative at the same time!! I’ve been an amateur photographer since my teens. Before digital killed it all, I loved using this great film in my rare Konica Instant Press camera."
"Paris or New York? Both. Being raised in Paris, I dream of New York, but if I had been raised in New York, I would dream of Paris."
"I dont often use the word pride. Even if sometimes the feeling is there, I cant quite admit it to myself, I try to keep humility. But looking back, I think Im pretty proud to be where I am today. Especially when I think back to the shy and withdrawn child that I could have been. I suffered, like surely many children, from a lack of confidence. This is also why my journey began by chance, and why it was arranged in a somewhat winding way."
"I am very thankful to the dog. All of the directors love this scar."
"I love living intense situations, which leave their mark and enrich existence. The birth of a child totally changes the perception of the future. With my son Orso, a Corsican name, like his mother Gaëlle Pietri, I filled a void I didnt know existed."
"I think one really memorable experience for me was on a film called Strayed by André Téchiné, a great filmmaker in France. That was an experience where I learned the most because he wouldn’t leave me alone, even for a second, between takes. [Laughs] He was really focused on his actors and that was really wonderful. I was really young at the time and that was a really important film for me."
