There are a lot of French actresses who just hate me now. I've made enemies.

I never took any theater lessons. So when I started to do movies, I was 14.

When I was shooting with Tarantino and Mike Mills and amazing directors, it made me think that I would never be a director. It's obviously too hard.

A good director has to be a captain - he has to work with a lot of people every day.

The perfect life would be to have an amazing part every year and to spend all my free time to just write.

Every time a director calls me and says, 'If you practice a lot in two months, can you be an American?' And I always tell them, 'Well, maybe but I'm French. So it's going to be hard to be someone else.'
