Am I an intellectual? I don't think so. Less than people sometimes think, I have to say. But more than some others think.

I don't know if you ever say to yourself that you want to be an actress. It eventually becomes a social function - you are an actress and you make a living out of it, but at the beginning it's more a matter of how to survive, or how to exist in a certain way.

I never had any barriers coming from my family. Just encouragement.
