I don't watch anything I'm in. Not even on set. I won't go over to the monitor to watch what we've just shot. It's too terrible. I think I'm just very self-conscious.
A lot of the films now are more focused on the visuals than on the actors. I think all directors should go to drama school.
It's very flattering to be remembered as a Bond girl with brains and not just for looking good in a bikini. I was a fan of Sophie Marceau in 'The World Is Not Enough.' I think her performance was very underrated.
I'm a dark blonde, yes. I dyed my hair blue, then black, when I was 14. I thought the colour was more flattering and matched my skin tone. I don't think I'd ever change back unless it was for a film.
I think it's very important to recognize talent in all facets of filmmaking. Making a movie is such a lengthy and intense experience, so it's wonderful to honour actors, directors, producers and all crew members who put so much hard work and passion into a project.
For me, working out is nothing to do with looks. It's to let it all out - the stress, the self-consciousness - you think less; it makes you more centred.
People think I'm so strong, but I'm very shy.
I don't have a problem with someone having plastic surgery, but I think it's crazy for everyone to have the same body.
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.
I feel like I'm 1,000. I don't feel I'm young enough a lot of the time.
There are a lot of people who want to be famous, singers, actors, nowadays and, you know, it's like a roller-coaster. And when you are very sensitive-I'm very sensitive-you have to be very strong, you know, you have to just not pay attention to the people who hate you, you know?
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.
Hollywood wouldn't suit me. In L.A. it's all about work - studio people have their five minutes with you and they go, 'Oh mah Gahd, I love your movie.' You just feel very self-conscious there.
