I think it's a legend that Lars von Trier is such a tough person to work with. I really didn't experience any of that. Of course, he's difficult in the sense that what he asks for is difficult. For my part in Antichrist, I suffered a bit. But it was the part - it wasn't him. He wasn't cruel. On the contrary, he was very kind. You know what you're up for when you read the pitch.

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

Maybe, in the back of my head, I'm thinking I have to do as much as I can. It'll stop.

Even moving around onstage seemed very artificial. But at the same time you have to make that effort in order to get back to who you are and even accept not moving, if that's who you are.

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

I can't do things by myself. I need a motivation, and the motivation is always the director's. I find my freedom inside other people's barriers. It's easier for me to find myself inside someone else's tracks.
