I think I will always feel a special relationship with The Umbrellas of Cherbourg, because for me it was something very, very special. It was a modern opera, and to play the heroine in a film that became such a success at a young age, and learning from him when I was so young and impressionable - really it was one of my most important experiences.

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

I love to do very long and complicated scenes.

I had mice that I kept as pets when I was very young, and I've always liked the way they look. Even rats. I'm not scared of them.

I go to the movies a lot, and I regret when I see some actor that I used to like, to find them offering no more surprises.

I'm not an admirer of action movies. I just think, Oh my God, it must be so tiring.

It's very difficult for me to speak about being an actor.
