Isabelle Huppert
I never had any barriers coming from my family. Just encouragement.
Isabelle Huppert

Isabelle Huppert
It was sometimes 60 degrees [Celsius], but it's very strange, cinema makes you forget reality most of the time. You are more concerned about your inner feelings, or your work.
Isabelle Huppert
Of course you have to create the conditions of a certain belief. And maybe ignoring something that you don't want to see, at least for the time of the shooting.

I don't know if you ever say to yourself that you want to be an actress. It eventually becomes a social function - you are an actress and you make a living out of it, but at the beginning it's more a matter of how to survive, or how to exist in a certain way.
Isabelle Huppert
I've done many, many French movies and many, many English movies. I think it frees something when you don't talk in your mother language, but I also think you withdraw something as well. I'm a French actress, and sometimes I speak in English-speaking roles. For me, being an actress was always being a traveler. It goes together.
Isabelle Huppert
You don't want to cry over yourself, you don't want to have compassion about yourself. It's not the right place.
Isabelle Huppert
If on paper one would say, You're gonna spend three weeks in Death Valley, you say, No, I'm not going to be able to. Very often, very quickly you forget about it.
Isabelle Huppert

Isabelle Huppert
Sometimes, an actress maybe knows how to think.
Isabelle Huppert
