I live for the present always. I accept this risk. I don't deny the past, but it's a page to turn.
Juliette Binoche
Image
For me, acting goes to a special place it's almost mystical. You have to let go of what you think is good it's a jump into trust, and trying to reach without wanting too much.
Juliette Binoche
Image
I'm very patient and always willing to try things but I have some resistance as well because I have my own vision. I have resistance sometimes because I see a director who's freaking out and wants to have control and they sometimes anticipate about what I'm going to be doing or not.

What makes a person sexy is when he's not trying to be sexy.
Juliette Binoche

Sometimes I call directors. Sometimes I just meet with them. It just happens. It's not that I'm pushy. It comes naturally. But I go ahead. I don't stay in my armchair, waiting for the phone to ring.

I believe such illumination comes if you're open to the surprises the universe throws at you. You must be able to let go of the past, whatever success you may have seen, whatever your comfort, whatever your habits. To me, that's the key to loving life: Enabling yourself to step bravely into the unknown. Only there will you find yourself again.

Maybe it's because my mother divorced and my grandmother divorced, so maybe I'm frightened deep down. But then I also feel there is no real need. Why do I need to get married? To reassure me? No I don't need reassurance.

Acting is a tough business, and you need to be in good shape mentally and physically.

I would say I'm humanly engaged.

I would have loved to have met Marilyn Monroe and have dinner with her.
Juliette Binoche
Image
Changing someone's life is not the best, is not wanting to change the other life. It is being who you are that changes another's life. Do you understand?
Juliette Binoche
Image
I have stories that I'd like to maybe one day consider directing, but you need a lot of time to write and put it together.
Juliette Binoche
Image
I like independence, I like creating my own world, not being in a system. There are more possibilities, I think.
Juliette Binoche
Image
I want to make films that are political and social. Films with a message or an idea. Films that dare to ask.
Juliette Binoche
Image
For me, habit is just a synonym for death.
Juliette Binoche
Image
I need relationships, but sometimes when I am in one I feel claustrophobic. It is about feeling that I still have my freedom, that I have choices. I don't look back on the past because I like to live in the present. I know this makes some people think I probably never cared, but I need my freedom and I like to keep moving.

When you make a film, it's a bet. You don't know how the film is going to be, anyway.
Juliette Binoche
Image
I try to see my films just once. It's like a dream you've been through when it's been intense, and you just have to go through it once more just to make sure you've had it.
