As an actress I find the most enjoyable part of acting is really just to please the director. I just want to please my director.
The difference between me and American-born actors is that I came here with the expectation of not being treated fairly.
There is no theoretical study of motherhood. You know, before I became a mother, I did play a mother, but I was like – I was more thinking of my own mother. I was doing my mother.
I enjoy going back to work now because cinema is going through an exciting period because young people are now going back to the movie theaters. But things are different though.
Acting is actually private.
I would never offer advice without the person asking for it. I, in general, don’t believe in giving advice, actually, as a human being I don’t.
I never went on an audition – when they were really looking at everybody.
I will always have a career. I believe in working. I don’t believe that taking care of your house and children is enough for a woman. You don’t feel complete.
If you know how to do a job very well, you keep doing it.
My fairy-tale life ended the moment I wanted to apply for a passport.
I miss directing. I see stories in images and music more so than in dialogue.
