Kristin Scott Thomas
I mean, if you're being directed very precisely by somebody who has admiration and who's really smart, it's great. If you're being told what to do by a nincompoop - and luckily that hasn't happened very often - it can be very frustrating.
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

Kristin Scott Thomas
After a long time with someone, you realise you've been thinking for two.
Kristin Scott Thomas
I do a film because I like the story and I want to give life to a character - I don't necessarily have to agree with the director.
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.
