I'm in love with love, so I'm always taking risks! I think it's part of love, taking risks.

Because I've made a film with such an amazing director as Tarantino, I'm much more conscious of working with good directors from now on, so that's what's important to me. I don't really care about making a big movie - I just want to make good ones.

I'm really confident. I had a perfect childhood. I had perfect parents and grandparents. They just love me, simply. So I have no fears.

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

It seems like the more you grow up the more you fear things.

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.'

I never practice before, I never work hours on a script. I just choose my characters and trust them, and after that, it's about the director taking your hand.
