Acting is like peeling an onion. You have to peel away each layer to reveal another.

Each new film is like a trial. Before I step in front of the camera, I do not know whether I am going to fall or whether I am going to fly - and that is exactly the way I want it to stay.

I never felt being an actor or making a movie was an easy thing to do.

As actors, we are so privileged to do what we do and to give to the world and to choose the subject we want to say to the world.

Fighting the ageing process just doesn't work. I think that actresses, ultimately, are responsible for the faces we give to women.

I think I am pretty much melancholic.

My private life is very private, and I have chosen not to live in America or England, where you are so exposed and can't fight against it.
