Sophie Marceau about Żuławski: Thanks to him, I discovered the joy of creating
Their relationship aroused great emotions from the beginning. The reason was not only the age difference between the partners, but also the director’s advantage in the professional sphere. However, the lovers did not care about the critical remarks. They spent 17 years together. Importantly, this was Żuławski’s longest relationship. In addition, Sophie was the artist’s only partner who appeared at his funeral in 2016. – He opened me, unlocked me as a man and a woman. He talked a lot, suggested reading material, and taught. Thanks to him, I discovered the joy of creating – she admitted in an interview with “Twój Styl”.
“I said: Alcohol, because you’ll leave anyway”
Żuławski and Marceau separated in 2001. As we learn from media publications, the couple broke up due to alcohol. The director had been abusing alcohol for years. So the actress gave him an ultimatum. It’s either her or alcohol. – I said: Alcohol, because you will leave anyway, you don’t belong here – confessed the director. Żuławski’s brother, in an interview with “Gazeta Wyborcza”, admitted that the director did everything to make the actress leave him. – I knew it would end badly. It was impossible to lock the most famous French actress in the forest near Warsaw. Andrzej loved Zosia terribly, she was the love of his life. However, he did everything to make her leave him – said Mateusz Żuławski.
