After 10 years of French torture - psychological torture - it's great to do an American movie.

It is not easy to age in harmony with one's roles.

In Hollywood there's no real material. They would send me stuff, but I hadn't even seen the director. If I don't see the director's eyes, I'm not going. I'm not even going to pack my bags.

When you are happy and in love and when you have children, then maybe you are beautiful.

My looks mean nothing to me. If anything, they are a hindrance.

I can't just react on the strength of an email and three pages of synopsis, and say I'm going to take off for three months of my life.

I just decided that I would not put my professional life on hold to raise children. I know that sounds selfish to a lot of people and I don't know if what I'm doing is the right thing. But that's the way I'm doing it.
