I think that everything is part of creativity - the more you create, the more you have ideas, and the more you meet people.
I'm in love with love, so I'm always taking risks! I think it's part of love, taking risks.
It seems like the more you grow up the more you fear things.
I'm not scared of growing old, I'm just scared of not achieving everything that I want to do.
It's so French to be a cat person.
France is an old country that needs to wake up.
Holiday? Is like, what? I'm a hyperactive girl, so it may be boring for me to be on the beach doing nothing. I just need to find a place for three weeks and work but sleep in the morning, maybe write a little bit, have a glass of red wine. That's my perfect holiday.
Everybody just asks me 'Are you going to make Hollywood movies now?' First, I don't know. Second, I never dreamed about that; I just dreamed about making movies with Tarantino. So if I can make movies with a lot of amazing directors - yes.
I don't really care about making a big movie - I just want to make good ones.
I never practice before, I never work hours on a script. I just choose my characters and trust them, and after that, it's about the director taking your hand.
A good director has to be a captain - he has to work with a lot of people every day.
Every time a director calls me and says, 'If you practice a lot in two months, can you be an American?' And I always tell them, 'Well, maybe but I'm French. So it's going to be hard to be someone else.'
I think I was, like, maybe frustrated for many years because I didn't try to direct. And since I made my movie I'm just like, 'It's great.
I love acting, but directing and writing have always been just as important. I started to write so many things when I was even a child. I wrote my first play when I was, like, seven years old. That was me - a writer - for years.
I didn't really want to act. Gerard Depardieu discovered me when I was 14 and asked if I wanted to make movies and I said, 'Why not?
I always choose my movie because of a director and a story and a, a character.
When I think it's good not to say the truth, I don't say anything. I don't like actors in general, they lie, they are liars, trust me.
When you make successful movies, everyone on set takes care of you, everybody is so nice and you disconnect from reality.
I like Chanel and Yves Saint Laurent. I have some great Balenciaga jackets and I'm shoe crazy.
Because I've made a film with such an amazing director as Tarantino, I'm much more conscious of working with good directors from now on, so that's what's important to me. I don't really care about making a big movie - I just want to make good ones.
I'm really confident. I had a perfect childhood. I had perfect parents and grandparents. They just love me, simply. So I have no fears.
There are a lot of French actresses who just hate me now. I've made enemies.
The perfect life would be to have an amazing part every year and to spend all my free time to just write.
I'm taking a break from music... everyone was so mean about it and it was so hard that I wanted to die.
Every time I play in a movie, I never expect that it'll be huge. I don't like thinking about that, because it's so scary.
