He adored editing because of the magic that can happen in the editing room and consider it as the final rewrite of the movie and can make or break a movie. Anatole is also an actor. After graduating in Paris he started to star in plays and commercials. He started his acting career because of his timidity when he was very little and theater helped him communicate and be more extrovert. As he grew up he realized that acting was very important to him because it would let him live life that he could not live and found it tremendously interesting. It was like living multiple lives ! Who wouldn't like living multiple lives? But more importantly it was about emotion and the connection between the actor and the audience and the journey they embark together, for better or worse.
