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
We all come in different shapes and sizes, and that's fine by me.
Kristin Scott Thomas
It's very hard having a career in different continents and two different languages.
