More quotes by Catherine Deneuve
Being a film actor is very different from a theatre actor.
Catherine Deneuve
But I never gave up personal things to work, never.
Catherine Deneuve
I admire Cate Blanchett and Kate Winslet. I like a lot of comedians. I like Cameron Diaz - she's funny and has a very light spirit. That's quite rare nowadays. There are many actresses I admire.
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
A lot of actors don't like to see how they've done every day.
Catherine Deneuve
There are relatively few role models for young people. We are in a society that is ruled by men.
Catherine Deneuve
Charm and perfection hardly cooperate. Charm premises little mistakes which one would like to cover.
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 can be very critical on myself and on other people I can be very demanding.
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
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
You get involved with a character after spending a long time waiting, and this demands a lot of energy and concentration.
Catherine Deneuve
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
The story is more important to me than the part.
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
Sometimes it's more difficult to do very simple, low-key films.
Catherine Deneuve
To have a public life, you still have the right to a private life.
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 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
I was never a dangerous woman. I'm not the prissy blonde woman that could take your husband away.
