I was very lost as a teenager. Which is a horrible way to feel.

Having a leading man who is actually prettier than you are is quite upsetting.

Successful films are very dangerous things.

When I speak English, I've been told, I have this patrician way of speaking that's very irritating. It's the whole class thing.

I love shooting French films because I don't have to stick with being sophisticated or stuck-up.

As a younger actor you want to be approved of, you want to gain respect, be admired. All of those things. To say: 'This is me playing this character. And aren't I fantastic!' I don't feel that so much now.

I never raise my voice!
