I like to play roles different from myself so I can hide behind them.

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.

I started so old, so the touring world will always be a foreign land for me. I'll never be someone who's "been on the road."

There's always this thing of wanting to be elsewhere.

I hope I'll consider my next part, having learnt from this one.

It's more than a job. It's very personal, so when you're hurt, you're really hurt inside.

I was really nervous about people booing, because my mother had gone for a film 20 years earlier and had a terrible time with people booing, whistling, so I knew that in Cannes people can get aggressive.
