I'm not used to being asked what I want to talk about. That's why I'm an actress. Get told what to do, stand on the mark, say your words, wear this, look this way, look that way.

Seeing The English Patient is wonderfully draining, but imagine acting in it for six months.

Baths are my favorite thing. I can have two, three a day.

We older women in Europe are lucky not to be shoved away in a drawer.

Films are just consumables.

I wouldn't want you to see me all the time on the screen, because I get bored of it myself!

I think I'm inspired mostly by other artists that aren't actors, like writers or singers or artists, for being so brave.
