I'm not clever enough or aware enough to make a political movie.

For me, there are always things to learn. It's like the next movie is going to be the good one, you know.

My real passion is to make movies, to direct. It's good for my ego to be an actress. It's like someone is saying, 'Yes, you're beautiful! Yes, you're doing fine!' But I feel like a child when I'm an actress.

I need to be in front of my obstacle. I like to have a back dialogue; I like to talk with people; I like to share ideas.

Before I discovered moviemaking, I hadn't found anything where I could kind of galvanize or meld all of the things that I wanted to do.

You can watch Chanel fashion shows and watch the news. Fortunately you don't have to choose. I always vote, I go to rallies, but I also go to fashion shows.
