And I haven't had the opportunity yet to make a big mainstream thing. It would be funny, maybe. But you know, when you do theatre, and little films, you're not famous, you don't have these propositions. It's normal, it's a question of money most of the time, they need somebody who brings money to the project. Hide

I replied: "Your Angèle doesn't exist anymore. Angèle is me." It's the same for Juliette, from Trois mondes (2012). The character exists only on paper, if it's embodied, it's through my body and my emotions, so it's me. Hide

And you can see that in France, the films that were successful at the awards were not because they were made to a formula, they weren't planned that way. Hide

There is not the narcissism, maybe, that you find in cinema. Also, even if the play is great, every day in theatre you have to question everything, because the audience is new every day. I love that.

At home in the morning, I eat muesli with a banana. At noon, I mix a little bit of all the seeds I can find. I love quinoa. It's great, it cooks like rice and is better than caviar. When my boyfriend's sick I will make him eat my seeds all the time! Hide
