There are so many designers that I love, and I'm so lucky that I get to work with so many of them and sometimes spend time with them.

If we continue on the path we're on, there simply won't be enough fresh water for everyone.

If I read a script and the subject stays with me - then that's when I want to go to work. Before, I was very addicted to being on set, and I was doing three or four movies a year for many years. Now, fortunately, I can go to work only when I am passionate about a project, and the rest of the time, I can live my life. I'm not interested in doing movies just as a marathon. When I go to work now, I have much more to give. But the other way, you get empty.

When you really have the preparation time and things start taking the shape that they need, you have a beautiful feeling that comes from the hard work.

For 'Vicky Cristina Barcelona,' for example, Woody Allen is one of the greatest American directors, and we really had a very good working relationship. We understand each other really well. He gave me one of the best opportunities somebody has ever given me in my career.

It's great working with my sister, because we are very close as a family - my brother, my sister and myself. We have a great relationship.
