Sometimes it's more difficult to do very simple, low-key films.

I know who I am, how I was. I don't want to know how I will be because nobody knows that.

I have a strong sense of responsibility. I like to be directed, it's true. If I didn't like that, I'd do something else.

Getting older is not nice for anyone, not for men, not for women, and even more difficult for people who depend on their physical appearance. But it's not a drama. I know some people who are much more stressed than I am. And also, I live in Europe; I think it would be much more difficult if I lived in America.

I think one of the few times I've been involved with real-life characters was the story of Marie Bonaparte. I think it's really difficult to become someone that really existed.

There are relatively few role models for young people. We are in a society that is ruled by men.

I'm not always the nicest person to meet, because I forget very easily that I'm an actress when I'm not working.
