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

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

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.

As an actress, I think I really understand that stage where you think you are picking reality in order to feed the fiction, but it happens to be the contrary. It's the fiction that suddenly feeds your reality. And you don't know how it has been done. That's the kind of magical transposition that is art.

I really have problems with horror movies. I don't watch them. It's a feeling I don't want to have in cinema. I'm too reactive. It's too draining to watch that kind of movie.

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

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.
