You suffer as an actor. It's difficult to be an actor and live a good life, especially today.

Even if a woman is abused a very long time ago, it comes out in her life in a negative way.

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

It is very fashionable for good-looking ladies to say how hard it is to be beautiful, but that's not true. There are times when itdepresses and bothers me to see just how easy things are made for a beautiful woman.

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.

I don't live that much with the character. I find it hard enough having to spend so many hours with the character during the day.

I was never a dangerous woman. I'm not the prissy blonde woman that could take your husband away.
