As an actress, I'm supposed to create something from head to toes, with clues, with lines, with shapes, and even with that power, I felt lost and not in control.

Having a movie that lasts and makes your image imprinted into the history of cinema, it's very positive.

There's a kind of chemical spark that comes sometimes with the character, that you don't even have to think about how she is reacting, you just let yourself go. You just let the character take you, instead of taking the character.

When I was in my 20s, I thought that being known for 'Swimming Pool' was kind of a burden. Like, OK, everyone thinks I am this tanned bimbo and I was having problems coping with that image.

You know, when you start, especially with me, I didn't really know I was going to be a movie actress. I thought I was going to do theater.

I hate to recreate the whole world into my imagination.

'Swimming Pool' was a very important moment for me because the character was written for me.
