I do not want to pour out my heart to the world. I am cautious of what I say and to whom.

I tend to do things that I'm very frightened of. That's what I do.

I really like acting in French. It's actually quite different for me, from acting in English. It's fun acting in a foreign language. You're liberated or freed from preconceptions.

As an adult, it's a huge shock to be orphaned; as a child it's just hideous, ghastly.

Boarding school is a wicked thing.

Often, the roles I'm offered in England are melancholic women who are filled with regret for the past, regret for their fading beauty.

Having a career is a bit like navigating an Atlantic crossing - you have to make sure everything is keeping and is balanced.
