Vincent Cassel: “Hay cosas que son buenas para tu carrera y otras que te gustan: haz siempre lo segundo”

Vincent Cassel, now 59 years old, remains forever linked in the minds of many to his roles in El odio (1995) and the iconic Vince from Mathieu Kassovitz's film. Despite over three decades passing, that movie exposed the seams of modern France. The story centered on a young Parisian Jew, filled with frustration, revenge, exclusion, and a sense of permanent injustice, seeking vengeance for his friend's death at the hands of the police.

Vince, but also Saïd and Hubert, his soulmates, formed an improbable trio in the banlieues, united by the ominous smell of fracture, exclusion, and identity conflicts that began to fuel hatred and invigorate the far-right fire.
