More quotes by Juliette Binoche
I like independence, I like creating my own world, not being in a system. There are more possibilities, I think.
Juliette Binoche
You make your own path as an actor. Nobody does it for you, so you have to invent yourself.
Juliette Binoche
Choosing to be in the theatre was a way to put my roots down somewhere with other people. It was a way to choose a new family.
Juliette Binoche
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.
Juliette Binoche
Ive never thought of my characters as being sad. On the contrary, they are full of life. They didnt choose tragedy. Tragedy chose them.
Juliette Binoche
Acting is a tough business, and you need to be in good shape mentally and physically.
Juliette Binoche
I want to make films that are political and social. Films with a message or an idea. Films that dare to ask.
Juliette Binoche
I think acting is about forgetting yourself in order to give the best of yourself. It's passing through you more than you're creating it. You're not the flower, but the vase which holds the flower.
Juliette Binoche
I was used to theatre classes. I studied with my mother she was a theatre teacher and directed, too, so it was very family-like. Then I studied with a great teacher in Paris, and she was wonderful she pushed me, but she was a warm soul.
Juliette Binoche
When you really put your heart in the work, you don't think of how you look. And I think that's the beauty of it.
Juliette Binoche
I am not a woman staying at home.
Juliette Binoche
My aim was never to be an American star otherwise, I would have moved to Los Angeles.
Juliette Binoche
Before I thought there was a common denominator between my films - as if all my characters were sisters - but I'm not so sure now.
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.
Juliette Binoche
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.
Juliette Binoche
Usually I love preparing. It's really the time I prefer, because it's a time of reflection and of possibility of growth - to let it cook inside.
Juliette Binoche
I think I am pretty much melancholic.
Juliette Binoche
In a building with apartments, of course, you want to make connections. Life is easier that way. There's salt if you don't have salt you can knock at someone's door, like in any city. But you know, you can hear the others, and you want to sleep, you get annoyed.
Juliette Binoche
When you make a film, it's a bet. You don't know how the film is going to be, anyway.
Juliette Binoche
My only ambition is to be true every moment I am living.
