I had starred in TV movies without much artistic value. They gave me a certain range. I knew that I was going to continue my studies, but I wanted to try something else on the side. I wanted to see what would come of it.

There's a kind of amateurishness among French actresses, but I don't share that completely.

I've often been told that I'm a bit strange. I hear that pretty regularly, but it is not how I see myself.

I believe you have to make things happen.

I’m always so impressed with these actresses with their perfect make-up and hair and sometimes I’m very aware that I’m not like that. But I don’t think I can do things any other way. I would be wearing a disguise if I started to apply that stuff.

A film is a great deal about what you see, and the silhouette of a character tells you a lot. I'd love to go into film costume.

I think denim is something everyone feels comfortable in. It's kind of my uniform, really.
