I show through my movies that I can do something else. But I always play strong-minded characters. I think it's maybe because I'm like that. I love being by myself.

I think that when you create something or at least try to create something, you slither between excitement and pleasure and you understand this huge emotional frustration. You did one feat, then you go back one.

I've never sent a Tweet. I think I have an account but I don't know who runs it. I've never done one in my life.

I wouldnt mind being in an American film for a laugh, but I certainly dont want to be in Thingy Blah Blah 3, if you know what I mean.

Even if I have only ten more years in front of me, it's such an intensive life. I have the feeling that I have already lived three lives in three years.

I'm not imagining me being the James Bond girl, because anyway I don't have the good maturation.

Coco Chanel really wanted to have freedom of a man, and at first the only way she could find that freedom was through the clothes. They freed her movement; she got rid of the corset. This imposed her not as a decoration but as a real personality. She invented a new way of seductions through these clothes.

I like actors who are themselves. I know in America you like actors who change their nose or wear a lot of wigs, and they like to take pretty girls and make them super ugly.

I don't want to become more famous than what I am. I'm not interested in being in movies that are going to be shown all around the world and get a massive audience, so I'm interested in doing foreign movies as long as it stays an exceptional case and is exotic, but I don't want to go there [Hollywood].

What I like about theatre is the responsibility you have with your character.

I like to think in camera, but at the last minute the most important thing is that there is something happening between the actors. But good actors can have a lot of scenes going around them but sometimes it sort of helps the performance because it takes their mind off of who they are supposed to be.

You have to have the essential pleasure of making a movie. It's such a huge factor and adventure for a director because you really are the leader and the captain.

I like photography and writing and travel, so I have a lot of cerebral occupations. I am going to become a sailor and do a world tour on my yacht if I don't get any more work.

Usually, I read the script very often. I think that everything is hiding in the script.

There are moments when it's unbelievable how people who work on the hair or on the little bit of skin here, they have no other care or interest since this part of their job is the only thing that needs to look good. So you have to push everybody to the side so that you can have a connection with your actor and give some air to your actor.

It was new to play a woman who plays with her sincerity, and who is a seductress, a manipulator and a liar! I was able to compose a character as opposed to being very natural, so it was very interesting for me. It was great to realise that I could be this kind of real woman!

I think that if you do an American movie it's important to earn some money, but in a stupid way, to be respected.

I don't really know Hollywood, and I think that L.A. needs a bit of time to really know the city, because it's such a huge city.

A certain type of critic doesn't really want French movies to be visual. They think movies started from books and they forgot this part of moviemaking, like Chaplin and Buster Keaton, which I didn't forget.

I like movies that have strong personalities, and Michel Gondry is so creative that his films are always something special to watch.

When you decide to adapt some Russian novel, it's like everyone knows about it but nobody has read it.
