More quotes by Charlotte Gainsbourg
I don’t have tons of scripts where I don’t know what to choose and I’m trying to calculate. It’s either I read something and I have an impulse to do it, or in meeting someone, I want to work with them, but it’s always been very obvious.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
I wish I could just accept that I'm not that good and not be shy about the fact that I'm not that professional.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
I hope I'll consider my next part, having learnt from this one.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
I was very attached to my family when my father died. I was 19. I was about to go live with my father right when he died, so it was very intense.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
In France I'm very private, I don't like talking about my life, and I imagined that people would think that I'm now an open book.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
It rarely happens that I get to work again with the same director. I had such a wonderful time on Antichrist with Lars von Trier, that I was going to do whatever he proposed me to do. When he sent me the script of Christmas, I just loved it. I think I love anything he writes.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
I felt that people would criticize everything. I was so scared about playing Paris. I was very much aware that the greatest concerts my father and mother had done were there. I was sure people would be very tough.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
You think that being a girl is degrading, but secretly, you'd love to know what it's like, wouldn't you?
Charlotte Gainsbourg
I was so lucky because I started working very young. And my father was very wealthy and I didn't need to work. I did my films.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
I would love to be able to do a film. I would love to be able to focus on what excites me in watching actors.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
The problem with me in doing things simply is that I feel I'm not enough. It's all very embarrassing.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
I used to hate being recognised.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
I went on television and I wouldn't say a word I feel so stupid when I watch them again.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
Maybe, in the back of my head, I'm thinking I have to do as much as I can. It'll stop.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
I still find it hard to push my own limits. I know where my limits are and that I always have to push myself.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
It's difficult for me to write in English as it's not my first language, but French is even worse because of my father's influence and because the comparisons that I - not even other people - would make.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
I didn't want to change my personality onstage, but I still had to build some kind of ego to be able to go up there. If not, there's no point.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
I don't feel I have to share everything.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
Even moving around onstage seemed very artificial. But at the same time you have to make that effort in order to get back to who you are and even accept not moving, if that's who you are.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
The more sincere I could be, the better it would be for the film.
