More quotes by Kristin Scott Thomas
Exoticism can give you an edge: it makes people assume you're cleverer than you are and gives you the upper hand.
Kristin Scott Thomas
I do consider myself as being French, I suppose.
Kristin Scott Thomas
I really like acting in French. It's actually quite different for me, from acting in English. It's fun acting in a foreign language. You're liberated or freed from preconceptions.
Kristin Scott Thomas
I am sure that, had I grown up with both parents, had I grown up in a safe environment, had I grown up with a feeling of safety rather than danger, I would not be the way I am.
Kristin Scott Thomas
It doesn't make you feel very good being mean and fierce it is much nicer playing people who are kind and sweet.
Kristin Scott Thomas
I know I can be bolshy and really unpleasant, and it always happens if I lose confidence in the people I'm working with. If I've got no confidence in what I'm doing and they don't provide me with some assurance that we're doing the right thing then I bully people. I'm a horrible bully.
Kristin Scott Thomas
The Cannes film festival is about big-budget films but also remarkable films made in different political regimes by film-makers with little resources.
Kristin Scott Thomas
Baths are my favorite thing. I can have two, three a day.
Kristin Scott Thomas
Making films can be absolutely fantastic, but it can also be incredibly dull. You spend the whole day sitting by yourself in your trailer and then you get called to deliver one sentence - then you're told to come back and do it again at 5:30 the following morning.
Kristin Scott Thomas
I think I'm inspired mostly by other artists that aren't actors, like writers or singers or artists, for being so brave.
Kristin Scott Thomas
I never raise my voice!
Kristin Scott Thomas
Having a career is a bit like navigating an Atlantic crossing - you have to make sure everything is keeping and is balanced.
Kristin Scott Thomas
I'm a bit of a Doubting Thomas - always worrying about things.
Kristin Scott Thomas
Successful films are very dangerous things.
Kristin Scott Thomas
In fact, in many ways my mother was quite hippy-dippy, serving macrobiotic food and reading 'Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance.'
Kristin Scott Thomas
I find it difficult to explain, but I'm quite ashamed of being an actress.
Kristin Scott Thomas
I was very lost as a teenager. Which is a horrible way to feel.
Kristin Scott Thomas
When I speak English, I've been told, I have this patrician way of speaking that's very irritating. It's the whole class thing.
Kristin Scott Thomas
As a younger actor you want to be approved of, you want to gain respect, be admired. All of those things. To say: 'This is me playing this character. And aren't I fantastic!' I don't feel that so much now.
Kristin Scott Thomas
I just get so fed up with seeing the same things written about me. If I see the words 'ice queen' attached to me, I feel like banging my head against the wall. There's this perception that I can only be in a film if I have a glass of champagne in my hand and a stately home in the background.
