I believe that time destroys everything. You can take one beautiful apple, red. After a while, it becomes shrivelled and full of worms, just like what happens to us
Now, all the movies are for teenagers. It's very difficult for an actress to find really deep, beautiful characters to play.
I like comedies, I like thrillers, I like love stories. Everything is beautiful; it depends if the film is good, who cares? Everything is interesting.
Personally, I find it romantic not to be with someone all the time; you don't get used to someone or take them for granted.
I come from a Catholic religion, but I'm not Catholic.
When you see a silent movie, you understand everything that's going on from the images because the images are so strong.
When I have to go to Cannes, that is boring to me.
I live in Paris but I feel I am a daughter of Europe.
I'm not a movie star. I'm just an actress
In acting process, it's very difficult to explain. It's something very intimate, very private
Being an actress is the sublimation of feminity.
In a couple, sometimes, one or both people have to give up their personal life, dreams and ambitions for the good of the family.
Today, when I see the scene on screen, I can't handle it. I look away.
Wherever I go, I am Italian. The way I talk, the way I eat, the way femininity is important to me. The way I love Italian food.
