More quotes by Catherine Deneuve
I like some of the early silent films because I love to watch how actors had to play then. What would interest me today is to do a silent film.
Catherine Deneuve
When I first see the dailies, I look only at myself, but then you start to see the scene.
Catherine Deneuve
I am frivolous. Then I feel guilty.
Catherine Deneuve
At a certain age, you have to choose between your face and your ass.
Catherine Deneuve
I like working with directors much, because I want to be able to give myself completely to their vision. Otherwise I would only do what I could do, again and again. I want to be taken by someone in a different direction.
Catherine Deneuve
You get involved with a character after spending a long time waiting, and this demands a lot of energy and concentration.
Catherine Deneuve
Film is a very young art that is still evolving. Soon, we shall reach a balance between content and technology.
Catherine Deneuve
A lot of actors don't like to see how they've done every day.
Catherine Deneuve
I don't live that much with the character. I find it hard enough having to spend so many hours with the character during the day.
Catherine Deneuve
I was never a dangerous woman. I'm not the prissy blonde woman that could take your husband away.
Catherine Deneuve
To have a public life, you still have the right to a private life.
Catherine Deneuve
I always try to keep that feeling of being on the edge. I'm afraid of knowing too well and seeming mechanical.
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
It's very difficult for me to speak about being an actor.
Catherine Deneuve
Charm and perfection hardly cooperate. Charm premises little mistakes which one would like to cover.
Catherine Deneuve
The only human being I could tell everything was my sister Françoise. She and I were so diametrically different put together we would have been a fantastic woman.
Catherine Deneuve
Acting is also working with people who invite you into their dreams and trust you with their innermost being.
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.
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
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.
