I had a very curly perm in the '80s, thanks to the 'Way You Make Me Feel' Michael Jackson video. I liked the girl in it.

I have a little bit of an addiction to work. So I'm always hiding in the bathroom with my Blackberry to work when I'm on holiday.

Pedro Almodóvar asked me to watch italian films again as homework to look at the energy of all those women from the Italian neo-realist films. A lot of them had those characters that represented motherhood. For some reason, in the '50s in Italy, the mother figure was very important - and my character needed to have that energy.

As a kid, I had a lot of energy; but the ballet lessons made me calm - this pleased my mother.

Every relationship ends, until maybe you find one that lasts forever.

I want to work with Johnny Depp.

You cannot live your life looking at yourself from someone else's point of view.
