Most of the women in film are there to be beautiful to the man.
I go shopping maybe three times a year in an intense way. I'm like a man. Can't spend too much time in a shop.
The worst is when men try too hard, because it's not very masculine. Your outfit has to look like 'Oh, I just grabbed that.' Not too calculated. Jeans, a t-shirt: the simpler the better.
I'm not really keen on men wearing perfumes. It's just a bit wrong! I don't find it sexy. I prefer essential oils - patchouli is nice.
I think British men build up the idea of us French girls having some magic extra sex appeal so much, they lose their heads. I can't really understand the whole thing - but it makes me laugh. It's such a cliche to think all French girls are well dressed, elegant, sophisticated and sexy. Some are utter slobs, I promise you that.
In France, the auditions and the plays aren't good, they're too laid back. And I remember in the London school you had a voice teacher, you had an improvisation course, you had to study authors, you had a lot of things. In France, you just act in a lot of scenes, but it's too vague.
I don't have a problem with someone having plastic surgery, but I think it's crazy for everyone to have the same body.
I feel like I'm 1,000. I don't feel I'm young enough a lot of the time.
My father is a dentist. He has nothing to do with acting. He is proud of me. I come from a bourgeois family, like the family in The Dreamers.
They really fall in love. She has a big impact on his life and he will later become the Bond that we all know because of that one relationship.
I love the musicality of English. French sounds flat. In English, you can play with pitch.
If you're weird, it's good to be weird.
When I'm not working I just like to be comfortable: I love black, nothing tight, no heels, no make-up - it's nice to be able to breathe!
I feel sick if I have to do something for the money. I can't breathe. I'm not proud of myself.
