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 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.
It's boring to be like everybody.
Hollywood wouldn't suit me. In L.A. it's all about work - studio people have their five minutes with you and they go, 'Oh mah Gahd, I love your movie.' You just feel very self-conscious there.
I've always felt a bit weird, very shy.
Don't be ashamed of who you are, embrace who you are.
In France, the auditions and the plays aren't good, they're too laid back. And I remember in the London school you had a voice teacher, you had an improvisation course, you had to study authors, you had a lot of things. In France, you just act in a lot of scenes, but it's too vague.
In a Tim Burton movie, you know it's going to be something unusual, or a bit mad. Something "other."
I'm not really involved with politics... I'm living in my cocoon with my classical music around.
I need to fall in love with someone. Sorry - I mean fall in love with something. I need to wake myself up.
