    Character Evaluation

    Vincent Cassel has superb acting skills and fierce appearance   . In terms of appearance alone, Vincent Cassel is indeed not a handsome guy in the traditional sense. Most of his roles are violent villains, but he has a charm that makes many women infatuated. In him you can see the whole of Paris, noble, corrupt, strong, and feminine. He has gathered all the contradictions in one body. Sometimes he is a man, sometimes a bitch, sometimes looks noble, and sometimes looks like a rascal. Moreover, he deliberately seeks diversity in the choice of roles, turning himself into a "chameleon" . 
    Vincent Cassel is not a handsome guy who can be heart-warming at first sight, but he has a bit of alternative scorn, righteousness and evil, and he has an extraordinary temperament. He is a charming man with a stronger taste as he grows older. At the same time, this stylish man has a unique style of dress and is commendable. It is a collection of the French's natural keen fashion concept   . In the movie "The Apartment", Vincent rarely converges his sharp determination and becomes a young man with unruly curly hair in literature and art. You can see his elegant and quiet side .
