I am a dreamer. Seriously, I’m living on another planet.

I’m not really involved with politics… I’m living in my cocoon with my classical music around.

Hmm, limelight… No, I’m not Sienna Miller or Angelina Jolie. I’m very lucky and happy, but I still find it very difficult to get good scripts and good roles. It’s really a jungle out there.

I am a dreamer. Seriously, I’m living on another planet.

I’m French, so I’m quite lazy about exercising, and I smoke. But I do love going for a run in the morning with my dog. That’s all.

When people say ‘You’re so beautiful’ it makes me want to kill myself! As an actress you want to be seen for what you do, for the characters you can play, otherwise I’d be a model.

I hardly ever go to parties. If I really have to, I’ll go, but I’m not the most open person, which is sometimes not the best quality.

I feel sick if I have to do something for the money. I can’t breathe. I’m not proud of myself.

I’m worried because of my mother, she’s going to see my performance and she’s quite hard. She’s going to see me naked. And my Dad, woah. Yeah, they’re going to see me like a woman, you know?

My mother did movies from the New Wave, but I was quite shocked I didn’t know much about that period. Bernado showed us film of the demonstrations of the time.

My father is Swedish and my mother is French.

I also liked Daniel Craig. He’s not like any other Bond. So we’ll see. In 10 years I might be cursed for doing it, but I’m very grateful for what it has done for me.

I didn’t want to do ‘Casino Royale’ when they told me to audition. I said no. Then they sent me the script, and I thought it was actually very interesting – and I had no other work at the time.

I want to travel. Maybe I’ll end up living in Norway, making cakes.

Success is very ephemeral. You depend entirely on the desire of others, which makes it difficult to relax.

I need to fall in love with someone. Sorry – I mean fall in love with something. I need to wake myself up.

I’ll need my whole lifetime to polish my craft.

Everyone wants to work in America. Maybe not blockbusters or Terminator, but to have the choice.

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.

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!
