It's true that I'm drawn to unusual stories. Normal roles don't really attract me.

I want to travel. Maybe I'll end up living in Norway, making cakes.

It's very flattering to be remembered as a Bond girl with brains and not just for looking good in a bikini. I was a fan of Sophie Marceau in 'The World Is Not Enough.' I think her performance was very underrated.

At drama school, I always picked the really evil roles. It's a great way to deal with your everyday emotions.

Image
Towards the end of 'Dark Shadows,' the sets are cracking and bleeding, but so is Angelique. The fact that she breaks apart physically as well as mentally lends an added dimension, and I just loved playing that.

Most of the women in film are there to be beautiful to the man.

When people say 'You're so beautiful' it makes me want to kill myself! As an actress you want to be seen for what you do, for the characters you can play, otherwise I'd be a model

Nipples aren't killing children. They should be more concerned about the wars that are happening. There's so much violence in the world. There are so many legitimate things to be upset about besides nipples.

I'm not into social media. I'm like from another century.

To help people in the third world get educated and learn how to read and write is so important. I mean it is such an important human right.

I don't wear base, as I don't like to cover up my freckles, but I couldn't live without YSL Touche Eclat for hiding my under-eye circles. I love the smoky-eye look, so I use Dior's 5-Colour Eyeshadow in Night Dust and lashings of mascara. I finish with a dash of bronzer for a healthy glow.

You always feel quite vulnerable when you're naked on a set. You feel quite silly, actually. And with the green screen around you, it's not that sexy. But, it looks stunning. It's art. It's not vulgar. It's not indecent. It's not realistic. It's beautiful, I think.

I'd rather be thought as an international actress rather than a French one. Because I don't know what's coming up for me, my ambition is not to be typecast. So I'm working on my English accent, as well as my American one. I don't want to be like 'Okay, I'm French, and I want to succeed in Hollywood!'

If you're weird, it's good to be weird.

Some people collect butterflies - I love beetles.

Seeing what the film becomes, out of your hands - you never know, you know? I'm always rather anxious. It's not like in theater when you are more in control. You're more - not a puppet, but you don't control it. You don't own it.

I think it's very important to recognize talent in all facets of filmmaking. Making a movie is such a lengthy and intense experience, so it's wonderful to honour actors, directors, producers and all crew members who put so much hard work and passion into a project.

I have Algerian, Turkish, Swedish, Spanish blood: I feel like a citizen of the world. Life and cinema don't have borders.

My mother is an actress and very well known in France hence, I move to London to start my own life.

I play the piano. I bought an upright piano that is actually electric, so I can practice my scales with headphones on and not make my neighbours' lives hell!

The good thing about this Casino Royale thing, that I hope and pray, is that I'll have more opportunities. That roles will come up to me rather than going to the auditions. But I still have a lot of things to prove. I haven't, I think, shown all my talent.
