More quotes by Charlotte Gainsbourg
I like to play roles different from myself so I can hide behind them.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
I used to hate being recognised.
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 don't have a career plan. I've never done that. Things happen accidentally and I've been lucky.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
I was really nervous about people booing, because my mother had gone for a film 20 years earlier and had a terrible time with people booing, whistling, so I knew that in Cannes people can get aggressive.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
I wasn't getting the responses I hoped for. You can't protect yourself from other judgments.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
I started so old, so the touring world will always be a foreign land for me. I'll never be someone who's been on the road.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
In France, you're with the crew, and you have lunch with them. It's more like a family.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
My father loved me and he wanted to work with me and he didn't care what people would say.
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
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
Maybe, in the back of my head, I'm thinking I have to do as much as I can. It'll stop.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
Style for me is a casual way of putting something on. It's not thought out but needs to suit your way of life. Now I like wearing the same sweater over and over again, then taking it off when it's smelly.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
Letting go of things and not being afraid of being ridiculous or over the top - I think that's the main thing for me to work on.
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 haven't found a comfortable place onstage. I'm sure it doesn't have to be comfortable, but I'm very nervous, so I don't enjoy myself.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
I came to understand that people come and see you because they like you. They don't come to throw things at you.
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
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
Each time I changed, it was as if, on purpose, I didn’t want anyone to know too much about me, which of course now I regret, because I closed myself to everything. But it was my way of dealing with things.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
