I was always fascinated by the infinite, strange and 'scandalous' ways that insects copulate.

If we are completely honest with ourselves, everyone has a dark side to their personalities.

I didn't want to become an actress because the competition with my mother would have been to much to live up to.

But I don't really see myself as a role model. I'm not a dictator, or someone who wants to be adored!

I am the daughter of Mr. Neo-realism: I should gravitate towards narrative simply told, character, the truth. And I do love those movies.

In interviews, the first question I get in America is always: 'What do you do to stay young?' I do nothing. I don't think aging is a problem ... I'm so surprised that the emphasis on aging here is on physical decay, when aging brings such incredible freedom. Now what I want most is laughs. I don't want to hurt anybody by laughing -- there is no meanness to it. I just want to laugh.

A lot of the advertisement is done by saying: first of all, have a complex about who you are.
