I did great things in the theater. I did some nice roles, 'The Diving Bell and the Butterfly' or 'La Vie en Rose.' And I love my role in 'Frantic.' Emmanuelle Seigner bellbutterflydive Change image and share on social
'Venus in Fur' is very Polanski: you have the knife of 'Rosemary's Baby'; you have Thomas disguised as a woman as in 'The Tenant,' when Vanda puts makeup on him, it's like 'Cul de Sac'; the dress of Tess and other details that are very Polanski. He fell in love with the play because it was so much him. Emmanuelle Seigner babyculdetail share on social
I've wanted to be Mick Jagger since I was 18. One of the things I love about music is that you don't have to be dependent on other people like you are in the film business. I hate being dependent on anyone. With my music, I can do whatever I want. I also think it's made me more relaxed as an actress. Emmanuelle Seigner actressbusinessdependent share on social
My sister Mathilde is an actress, but more like a French Jennifer Aniston. She's famous just in France. She's very commercial and does big comedies. So, acting was part of my family, and that's how I was raised. Emmanuelle Seigner actactressaniston share on social
In France, I guess there's something like a tyranny in mentalities - we accept success badly, beauty, money. People are certainly envious, and this creates negative energy. This is annoying. I suffered a great deal at one time. I had to fight harder than others. Add to that my marriage to Polanski. Emmanuelle Seigner acceptaddannoy share on social
I never had the slightest desire to have cosmetic surgery - partly because I don't want to look like an alien and partly because it's nice to age in a way. Also, I think that if your soul is beautiful, then the rest of you stays beautiful. Emmanuelle Seigner agealienbeautiful share on social
When I did 'Frantic,' I didn't have a lot of experience. My English was so bad, and I did an OK job, I think, but I was not amazing. Emmanuelle Seigner amazebadenglish Change image and share on social
There's a lot of good roles for men, always, and for very young girls. But for women, not so many. Emmanuelle Seigner girlgoodlot Change image and share on social
I think age is just something written down on a piece of paper. I mean, you come across 20-year-olds who are like old people sometimes. I've never taken much account of age throughout my life - my own or anyone else's. Emmanuelle Seigner accountagehave share on social
I don't like the idea of fitting into a mould so as to conform. What I like is the danger, the difference - being unpredictable. Emmanuelle Seigner conformdangerdifference Change image and share on social
