• Zoé : It has to be tight, you know. Wait, it has to be very tight. It's the idea of the costume, right? Spandex costume, okay?

  Maggie Cheung : But, you are sure this is what René wants?

  Zoé : Oh, yes! Of course, that's what *he* wants.

  Maggie Cheung : It's just completely different from what I imagined, you know.

  Zoé : No, no, no. Look at the photo he gave me. This is the idea of Irma Vep. I say, it's like hooker. But, if he wants hooker, I say, it's okay. So, now we are in a shop of hookers.

• René Vidal : Again, I have this idea of you, in this part, in this costume. I thought it was very exciting. No. It's like a fantasy.

  Maggie Cheung : That's desire. And, I think it's okay; because, that's what we make movies with.

• Maggie Cheung : It's just a part. And, I'm playing a part and - she's fun. I enjoy playing her. It's like a game.

  Zoé : And all this money, this big money, big dec...

  Zoé : Why? For what?

  Maggie Cheung : Latex?

  Mireille : Yes.

  Maggie Cheung : Latex?

  Mireille : Like plastic.

  Maggie Cheung : Oh, rubber.

  Mireille : Yes, rubber, also. It's very sexy. Do you like girls?

  Maggie Cheung : Girls?

  Mireille : Yes. Have you sex with girls?

• Maggie Cheung : Actually, we don't get to see a lot of the big - I mean, a lot of the French films don't come to Hong Kong. And, maybe, the bigger films, we'll see with big stars like Alain Delon, Catherine Deneuve.
