I tend to be a lazy actress, unless I'm pushed.

Vin Diesel is the best kisser in the world, better than anyone else I've ever had. The most attractive thing about Vin is his brain. That's his most attractive muscle.

Italy to me is like the mean mother. Whatever I do, it's never good enough. People say I'm the queen of Cannes, but in Italy I get turned down for work.

Why did I spend all these years playing boring Europeans? I was made for action movies.

I want to be adopted by the French. I want to go to live in Paris.

Having been a child actor, I remember how directors would trick me to get good performances out of me. I don't think you need to do that.

I've worked with very few directors who've asked of me what I asked of myself.
