I feel like I'm 1,000. I don't feel I'm young enough a lot of the time.
I've never been very good talking about myself.
My father is a dentist. He has nothing to do with acting. He is proud of me. I come from a bourgeois family, like the family in The Dreamers.
I love the musicality of English. French sounds flat. In English, you can play with pitch.
I don't have a problem with someone having plastic surgery, but I think it's crazy for everyone to have the same body.
All my jewelry has stories.
I'm not really involved with politics... I'm living in my cocoon with my classical music around.
Life's too short to wear high heels.
For Tim Burton's birthday I gave him a rainbow beetle. He loved it!
I feel sick if I have to do something for the money. I can't breathe. I'm not proud of myself.
It's true that I'm drawn to unusual stories. Normal roles don't really attract me.
I give everything to my work, and I like complex roles, characters that aren't obvious. I've been very lucky so far, and I'm dreaming of working with directors like Jane Campion, Susanne Bier and the Dardennes. But the gods will decide.
Success is very ephemeral. You depend entirely on the desire of others, which makes it difficult to relax.
In Los Angeles, I feel like the ugly duckling, like I'm from Venus or something.
