Sometimes it's more difficult to do very simple, low-key films.

If you try to measure the future, you will never risk the present. Playing it safe. A ghastly game.

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.

People who know me know I'm strong, but I'm vulnerable.
Catherine Deneuve
Image
Lesbians and gays... they still have to fight, even inside. It's not that simple, even if they seem to be accepted.
Catherine Deneuve
Image
I've always been able to decide what was more important at different points in my life, but I never gave up personal things to work, never.
Catherine Deneuve
Image
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
Image
The paparazzi are nothing but dogs of war.
Catherine Deneuve
Image
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.

Charm and perfection hardly cooperate. Charm premises little mistakes which one would like to cover.
