More quotes by Catherine Deneuve
This book was company for me - I wrote these things when I was in hotels, far from where I normally live. I never intended to publish it.
Catherine Deneuve
I go to the movies a lot, and I regret when I see some actor that I used to like, to find them offering no more surprises.
Catherine Deneuve
I am frivolous. Then I feel guilty.
Catherine Deneuve
I'm afraid of being too sure, to just deliver. I think that's the biggest danger for actors - after a certain time, when you're known and recognised, people expect you to do what you're supposed to do, and there's almost no more criticism and that's very dangerous.
Catherine Deneuve
I admire directors so much, I find them incredible: they manage such a huge number of people of different characters, think of the money involved.
Catherine Deneuve
You'll be back. When the hunger knows no reason! And then you'll need to feed, and you'll need me to show you how.
Catherine Deneuve
Acting is also working with people who invite you into their dreams and trust you with their innermost being.
Catherine Deneuve
I love to do very long and complicated scenes.
Catherine Deneuve
I'm so popular it's scary sometimes. I suppose I'm just everybody's type.
Catherine Deneuve
Being a film actor is very different from a theatre actor.
Catherine Deneuve
People who know me know I'm strong, but I'm vulnerable.
Catherine Deneuve
It has been very erotic and provocative for people to wonder about my feelings for women.
Catherine Deneuve
It is very fashionable for good-looking ladies to say how hard it is to be beautiful, but that's not true. There are times when itdepresses and bothers me to see just how easy things are made for a beautiful woman.
Catherine Deneuve
I have no physical courage, I've asked for a double.
Catherine Deneuve
I was never a dangerous woman. I'm not the prissy blonde woman that could take your husband away.
Catherine Deneuve
Being an actress is a very physical thing. If I didn't look the way I looked, I would never have started in films.
Catherine Deneuve
I love to not work. I love to go to the movies, I like to travel... I think I work maybe half the year. Sometimes, people think I've done three films in a year, but it's because I did a participation [cameo?] in a film. But I work for half a year, no more.
Catherine Deneuve
That's what I like about film-it can be bizarre, classic, normal, romantic. Cinema is to me the most versatile thing.
Catherine Deneuve
I love to not work. I like to travel. I work maybe half the year, no more.
Catherine Deneuve
Cinema is still a very young art form with extraordinary techniques and very impressive special effects. But sometimes it seems the soul has been taken out of things.
