In 'Swimming Pool,' all the colors are very warm, sunny, the pool and all that. In 'Love Crime,' everything is so cold, and it's all inside skyscrapers.

Good characters are rare. As long as I find one or two a year, I'm happy.

I would love to meet some directors, and why not do some other movies in America? But, I'm not obsessed with this idea. I'm feeling very free in Europe.

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

It's funny how human beings are so entertained by crimes.

When you get quick fame and success and exposure, it makes you feel dizzy, and I didn't want to lose my balance 'cause that's something I've been struggling with for so many years. I'm not fond of the idea of making it in Hollywood. That's not my aim; otherwise, I would have settled down in Los Angeles.

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