I find it difficult to explain, but I'm quite ashamed of being an actress.
Kristin Scott Thomas
Image
I just don't see very many films. Because I make them.
Kristin Scott Thomas
Image
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.

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
Image
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
Image
I do consider myself as being French, I suppose.
Kristin Scott Thomas
Image
I'm not used to being asked what I want to talk about. That's why I'm an actress. Get told what to do, stand on the mark, say your words, wear this, look this way, look that way.
Kristin Scott Thomas
Image
You don't choose a film because it's made by a woman, you choose it because it's good.
Kristin Scott Thomas
Image
If you are a successful actor, which is what I am, then you tend to get labelled very quickly and easily.
Kristin Scott Thomas
Image
I'm very good at forgetting people.
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.
