That is really the freedom that allows you to create something that is exciting because who knows what's true?

I have my own style and don't really follow fashion, but I like leggings. They're easy to wear and can go with anything.

I don't want to be a Hollywood star. I just want to do my job and enjoy it. My aim is to find my true identity and to remain true to myself.

Most of the women in film are there to be beautiful to the man.

I'm a dark blonde, yes. I dyed my hair blue, then black, when I was 14. I thought the colour was more flattering and matched my skin tone. I don't think I'd ever change back unless it was for a film.

I don't believe in awards. It's very good for the ego, I suppose.

I think the work is the same in Indie films or blockbuster. It's just a difference when you do all the publicity. It's like another job. I remember the first time I did The Dreamers. I went to Venice; quite a good amount of publicity, a lot of round-tables and TV. I was just not expecting that. I thought I was going to visit Venice, but actually no.
