More quotes by Emmanuelle Beart
There are moments when you feel that the desire to work is fading, and the only way to bring it back is to get away from it, to put yourself in a state of frustration so you feel the need again.
Emmanuelle Beart
I am an actress, I earn money, I am well-known. I don't think it is altruism to become engaged in humanitarian work. It's the least one can do.
Emmanuelle Beart
I feel better in my body now than when I was 20. Why not?
Emmanuelle Beart
Often, when you see yourself on the screen, you feel like a sweater that's been put through the washing machine. You have the impression of having done something full and luminous, and suddenly, when you see it on the screen, it's turned back into a tiny little thing.
Emmanuelle Beart
My body is an instrument for me to use.
Emmanuelle Beart
It is not easy to grow old in this business, when you are a woman above all, in the cinema.
Emmanuelle Beart
I had my mouth done when I was 27. It was a botched job. Obviously, if I had liked my mouth I wouldn't have had it re-done.
Emmanuelle Beart
After 10 years of French torture - psychological torture - it's great to do an American movie.
Emmanuelle Beart
I have no TV, thank God. I haven't heard anything about Tom Cruise, except that he had a baby, I think.
Emmanuelle Beart
My looks mean nothing to me. If anything, they are a hindrance.
Emmanuelle Beart
My looks haven't prevented me from playing prostitutes or people broken by life. But when they need a token blonde with big breasts, that's OK, too. It's part of the game.
Emmanuelle Beart
I keep reading that I'm cold. But I'm not, I'm shy. And I play a lot of women of fire and sexuality like an animal - so I'm cold on one side and fiery on the other.
Emmanuelle Beart
My parents sent me to Montreal because I kept getting kicked out of school in France.
Emmanuelle Beart
When I'm playing a part, I can feel all my body playing it it's like really making love.
Emmanuelle Beart
There is a phrase in French, which means 'to miss.' To pass by. To not be able to stop. You love someone and someone loves you, but it just can't work for different reasons.
Emmanuelle Beart
Once I opened my eyes to the realities of life, I couldn't close them.
Emmanuelle Beart
I played football when I was little. I didn't want to be an actress at all, I wanted to be a majorette in an Australian circus. That was my ambition.
Emmanuelle Beart
I give everything I have to give on the screen. I feel I don't owe the public anything else.
Emmanuelle Beart
If I have one thing perfect, it's my eyebrows. And my feet. I love my feet. They're like Japanese feet. The rest I would like to hide. Especially my freckles. I feel ridiculous.
Emmanuelle Beart
In Hollywood there's no real material. They would send me stuff, but I hadn't even seen the director. If I don't see the director's eyes, I'm not going. I'm not even going to pack my bags.
