People expect a lot more from someone they think looks interesting. It's a burden.

I'm afraid of being too sure, to just deliver. I think that's the biggest danger for actors - after a certain time, when you're known and recognised, people expect you to do what you're supposed to do, and there's almost no more criticism and that's very dangerous.

A lot of actors don't like to see how they've done every day.

Lesbians and gays... they still have to fight, even inside. It's not that simple, even if they seem to be accepted.

Truffaut loved actresses, and he was very intense. All the actresses I knew wanted to do a film with him.

I think the clothes in Belle de Jour are very important to the style of the film. Even today, it is still timeless.

Marriage is obsolete and a trap.
