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.

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.

We didn't have a lot of time to really prepare for a great chemistry. It was more instantaneous and instinctive. In the morning I went to Daniel Craig trailer and if I wanted to make some changes there was sort of a go between me and the director. It was good because Daniel is always like, C'mon let's go for it. Let's fight for it!

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

I don't watch anything I'm in. Not even on set. I won't go over to the monitor to watch what we've just shot. It's too terrible. I think I'm just very self-conscious.

When I'm at an event, I like to be an eccentric dresser. I will just keep wearing what I like.

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

In a Tim Burton movie, you know it's going to be something unusual, or a bit mad. Something other.

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 like flirting, and when I love someone, I always give everything, maybe too much. And then you have to work at it all the time. I mean, the first months are always great, but afterwards it becomes hard work. It's not as passionate and crazy.

In this business actors who have Botox or surgery make you very aware of age. It's awful.

I'm French, so I'm quite lazy about exercising, and I smoke. But I do love going for a run in the morning with my dog. That's all.

Image
I don't want to be a Hollywood star. I just want to do my job and enjoy it. My aim is to find my true identity and to remain true to myself.

I hardly ever go to parties. If I really have to, I'll go, but I'm not the most open person, which is sometimes not the best quality.
Eva Green
Image
Lots of shy people dress a bit too much. It's just kind of an armour. People say the same thing about me.

I give everything to my work, and I like complex roles, characters that aren't obvious. I've been very lucky so far, and I'm dreaming of working with directors like Jane Campion, Susanne Bier and the Dardennes. But the gods will decide.

French sounds flat. In English, you can play with pitch.

I think British men build up the idea of us French girls having some magic extra sex appeal so much, they lose their heads. I can't really understand the whole thing - but it makes me laugh. It's such a cliche to think all French girls are well dressed, elegant, sophisticated and sexy. Some are utter slobs, I promise you that.

I was very, very nervous about the naked scenes. I'm very shy and reserved. But it was Bertolucci and I have seen Last Tango. It's not pornographic. He's a master of eroticism. I stopped being self-conscious. You have to forget everything.

For me, working out is nothing to do with looks. It's to let it all out - the stress, the self-consciousness - you think less it makes you more centred.
