Even moving around onstage seemed very artificial. But at the same time you have to make that effort in order to get back to who you are and even accept not moving, if that's who you are.
I still find it hard to push my own limits. I know where my limits are and that I always have to push myself.
I hope I'll consider my next part, having learnt from this one.
In France, you're with the crew, and you have lunch with them. It's more like a family.
I would love to be able to do a film. I would love to be able to focus on what excites me in watching actors.
The more sincere I could be, the better it would be for the film.
The more you turn down things, the more difficult it becomes to feel that the next one will be right.
There were always questions about my parents; I got so fed up with that.

I'm desperate to work again. I've often had those periods, but two years was the longest.
