Scott Thomas
mother people pinching
I was happy, I wasnt beaten, and I lacked nothing. But it wasnt what people expect - it was very much sort of pinching and scraping. I dont know how my mother did it.
simple way complicated
I never go straight to the point if I can go the most difficult way. Why be simple when you can be complicated?
worry doubt always-worrying
I'm a bit of a Doubting Thomas - always worrying about things.
people focus skins
I can't get into all that physical stuff of having to have flawless skin... Sometimes you see people and it looks like someone's got an eraser and made their face a little blurry - their traits seem to go out of focus.
character want gains
As a younger actor you want to be approved of, you want to gain respect, be admired. All of those things. To say: 'This is me playing this character. And aren't I fantastic!' I don't feel that so much now.
inspiration humor people
I'm not one of those famous people flying round the world emoting over every catastrophe. I'm too feeble.
movie ageless immortal
Movies make you immortal and ageless.
heart want world
I do not want to pour out my heart to the world. I am cautious of what I say and to whom.
sticks shooting film
I love shooting French films because I don't have to stick with being sophisticated or stuck-up.
people forget very-good
I'm very good at forgetting people.
class people film
I'm not at all fed up with British films, but I am fed up with playing upper-class people.
country culture ageing
French culture takes ageing very seriously. There's much less ageism than in Anglo-Saxon countries.
men upset
Having a leading man who is actually prettier than you are is quite upsetting.
adorable want
I don't want to have to be pretty. I don't want to have to be adorable.
