I don't have a career plan. I've never done that. Things happen accidentally and I've been lucky.

Each time I changed, it was as if, on purpose, I didn’t want anyone to know too much about me, which of course now I regret, because I closed myself to everything. But it was my way of dealing with things.

I'm desperate to work again. I've often had those periods, but two years was the longest.

I found it very difficult to explain to someone why you did a film. It's not like having a conversation.

The more you turn down things, the more difficult it becomes to feel that the next one will be right.

I don't want to feel that I'm a singer or an actress - being able to say that those are just experiences is what I enjoy.

I was so lucky because I started working very young. And my father was very wealthy and I didn't need to work. I did my films. I was very well paid for my age, and I could make choices, decide not to do a film for six months and wait until I'd get the right thing. Which made me quite a coward, you know. It's so easy to say no to stuff, and then, after a while, it's very hard to go back in.
