Personal Quote:

I tend to be a lazy actress, unless I'm pushed. Most of the time nothing much is required of directors, which is a pity. I've worked with very few directors who've asked of me what I asked of myself. See more »

Trivia:

Starred in three films that were screened at 2007 Cannes Film Festival: Catherine Breillat's The Last Mistress, Olivier Assayas' Boarding Gate and Abel Ferrara's Go Go Tales. See more »
