Francesca Annis
I am pretty self-indulgent.
Francesca Annis
Thank God we're not like America. Everyone wants to look like they're 20. In Europe we admire grown-up women I think men revere older women.
Francesca Annis
I never pursued being 'famous.'
Francesca Annis
I can feel the 60S looming. In my profession, I've just moved along with my age. By thinking in decades, rather than whether someone's 42 or 47, you can give yourself a whole 10 years to turn yourself around in.
Francesca Annis
Truly charismatic people, in my experience, dont come along very often.
Francesca Annis
