Melville says he never watches his movies until years later and


some he has never seen like un flic. i don't see how this is possible for a director not to see a cut of their film.

He's full of B.S.

no, if you watch the criterion collection of red circle they have rare interviews and in one clip he says that he never watches any of his movies until many years later. He also said that he has not see un flic at all.

don't get me wrong, i still think he is a great director but i do not think it is possible for a director to make movies and not see a final cut.

I think he means he never sees them after completing the final cut. How could he edit it if he didn't see it?
