Filmmaking is not about gender. You cannot ask a president in a festival like Cannes to have, like, five movies directed by women and five by men.

As a teenager, I didn't want to be me; I wanted to be many different people. Maybe I realized that they all lived inside me and that if I managed to connect with them, they would become aspects of me.

I don't want to change the world; I want to evolve myself.

When I was little, there were so many people in my house. Everyone was enjoying themselves, rehearsing, having fun. It was like a playground.

What I like in this job is you can travel to many places, many imaginations.

I don't have a favorite process. My favorite process is the right process for the person I am working with. I can fit in any process as long as the director respects who I am and doesn't try to put me in a situation to get something out of me - if I can give it without that situation.

'Do I have a purpose.' Right. And of course you do. Otherwise, you wouldn't be on Earth. I really strongly believe that if we're here, it's for a reason.

You don't really see yourself doing things, of course, but you feel.

I never analyzed whether I had a style or whether I didn't. I wouldn't be able to describe my style or even tell if I have one or not.

I think in friendship, you want to be there for your friend, and sometimes you just don't know what to do or the relationship you have with them is not clear enough for you to know what to do.

I was shy. I was more than shy.

I would love to go into an animal's dream - like a lion's or a cat's. I'm sure that's pretty awesome.

All of the characters I've had the chance to create are survivors. But we live in a world where surviving makes up most of what we do.

You have to find the place where you abandon everything of yourself. Then you can let something else happen.

My parents definitely sparked something in me. I'm sure of it. I saw how happy and fulfilled they were, and I knew I wanted the same job.

When I was a kid, my dream was to be an actress and to be able to jump from one world to another, to disappear into roles, that people wouldn't recognize me from one movie to another. So I feel very lucky that I have the opportunity to live that dream.

I was never really interested in fashion before I started to work with Dior. I didn't see fashion as an art form.

Having your picture taken in the street and put in a magazine won't change your life.

When a script moves me, I find that I immediately understand a character. Of course not completely, but I do understand.

My parents always told me that if you want something, you can do whatever you have to do to get it. As long as it's not against someone else.

My team puts forward a selection of dresses, and I choose the one I feel most natural in.

I'm not a method actor, but I'm affected by the life I share my life with during shooting. It's always a very strange and special period for me.
Marion Cotillard
-
There is something strange about me. I don't ever feel at ease in a group of people. I have to fight hard to overcome my fears.
