For me, making films is like being on vacation, it's a nice walk. But theatre is like mountaineering. You never know whether you're going to fall off or make it to the top.

Firstly I did it in this huge theatre in Avignon, then to smaller places, then bigger places. You have to change the volume of the voice, give more or less. The way you have to relate to space makes it like sculpture.

But someone like Claude Chabrol tries to make a connection between the society in which we live and the social reasons which make monsters out of some people.

You get used to being lazy doing films, but classical theatre's going to finish me off.

For an actress there is no greater gift than having a camera in front of you, listening to the most beautiful music in the world and just being looked at!

Going through this musical experience really helped us to understand the core of the film.
