Personal Quotes
"With Wolfgang Petersen, we were always the only two ready at time and the first on the set during the filming of Troy. The German rigour without a doubt."
"It was something strange for me, to kiss Orlando. I was so embarassed! It is not as fun as people think to shoot love scenes. You feel vulnerable, and there are about 100 people looking at you.
"I'm a little bit worried about this sudden success. I am quite independent and I'm afraid that this privilege could escape from me."
"Her beauty didn't do her any good and she couldn't use it in any positive way or manipulative way." - on Helen of Troy.
