More quotes by Charlotte Gainsbourg
I hope I'll consider my next part, having learnt from this one.
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
I went on television and I wouldn't say a word I feel so stupid when I watch them again.
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
Wanting to do it was much more powerful than the fright.
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
Maybe, in the back of my head, I'm thinking I have to do as much as I can. It'll stop.
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 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 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 used to hate being recognised.
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
I like to play roles different from myself so I can hide behind them.
Charlotte Gainsbourg
I wasn't getting the responses I hoped for. You can't protect yourself from other judgments.
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
I don't have a career plan. I've never done that. Things happen accidentally and I've been lucky.
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
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
I can't do things by myself. I need a motivation, and the motivation is always the director's. I find my freedom inside other people's barriers. It's easier for me to find myself inside someone else's tracks.
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.
