There were always questions about my parents; I got so fed up with that.

I think I developed a very closed personality. I didn't really have friends. I changed schools every year.

The problem with me in doing things simply is that I feel I'm not enough. It's all very embarrassing.

I think, being an actress, you know that you're getting old. I'm 44. I mean, an agent said when I turned 40, "It won't get better."

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

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 wasn't getting the responses I hoped for. You can't protect yourself from other judgments.
