Beyond the beauty, the sex, the titillation, the surface, there is a human being. And that has to emerge.

I have always had the urge to open forbidden doors: with a curiosity and an obstinacy that verge on masochism.

Every night I go over what I did in the day, in ethical or moral terms. Have I treated people properly? Did I tell the truth?

I am a woman with absolutely no sense of nostalgia.

Sometimes the directors were afraid of what they brought out of me.

Beyond the beauty, the sex, the titillation, the surface, there is a human being. And that has to emerge.

What is amazing for a woman of my age is that I change as the world is changing-and changing very, very fast. I don't think my mother had that opportunity to change.
