More quotes by Kristin Scott Thomas
Successful films are very dangerous things.
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
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 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
I'm not at all fed up with British films, but I am fed up with playing upper-class people.
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 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.
Kristin Scott Thomas
Everyone loves to hate a spin doctor.
Kristin Scott Thomas
Buy, buy, buy, buy! They want to grab you and trap you and turn you into little Elizabeth Hurleys.
Kristin Scott Thomas
At school, I always wanted to belong to a gang, and no one would have me. So I'd have make my own gang, but with everybody else's leftovers.
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
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
I was very lost as a teenager. Which is a horrible way to feel.
Kristin Scott Thomas
I like the idea that I'm making things that people might think and argue about.
Kristin Scott Thomas
I can't move back to England. My home is in France now. I'd love to but I can't. My family's all there now.
Kristin Scott Thomas
I think the sheer number of pop stars has kind of drowned out, somewhat, our interest. We're just submerged.
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
Baths are my favorite thing. I can have two, three a day.
Kristin Scott Thomas
If you make a film about a pig farmer in Wales and you are a huge hit as the pig farmer's wife, the next thing is you'll be asked to do a film about a sheep farmer in Scotland.
Kristin Scott Thomas
I'm very good at forgetting people.
