I admire directors so much, I find them incredible: they manage such a huge number of people of different characters, think of the money involved.
Polanski was very precise. I think he still is.
I'm not an admirer of action movies. I just think, Oh my God, it must be so tiring.
It's always difficult to play a scene of physical violence because you're always afraid that you don't know your own strength and might hurt someone.
You get involved with a character after spending a long time waiting, and this demands a lot of energy and concentration.
Most of the time I've worked with directors who write their own scripts. The story is more important to me than the part. The project of the film has always been more important to me.
Directors have to push me. I have to be pushed up. Not all the time, but often.
I can be very critical on myself and on other people; I can be very demanding.
It's very difficult for me to speak about being an actor.
