Emmanuelle Beart

“After 10 years of French torture - psychological torture - it's great to do an American movie.”

“Very often with an American movie, the end is very happy and you just feel good when you go out. When you go to a French movie, it's kind of like, oh!, and you can't go out; you're stuck in...”

“If a man or woman has something redone it is because he or she can no longer live with that part of their body, it is no longer bearable. Either they get help and find the strength to fight...”

“If I have one thing perfect, it's my eyebrows. And my feet. I love my feet. They're like Japanese feet. The rest I would like to hide. Especially my freckles. I feel ridiculous.”

“For me, I don't feel it is a success in the career to be the pretty woman; career success comes from being characters who tell us something about the truth.”

“We've all had that fear, that despair of losing someone, or this fierce desire because it's not reciprocated. The less reciprocation there is, the more desire we have.”

“Often, when you see yourself on the screen, you feel like a sweater that's been put through the washing machine. You have the impression of having done something full and luminous, and sudde...”

“Beauty is not something you can count on. Usually, when people say you are beautiful, it is when there is a harmony between the inside and the outside.”

“When you are happy and in love and when you have children, then maybe you are beautiful.”
