- I adore gelato; it’s a pleasure I shared for years with my friend Gabriel Garcia Marquez.
- I was an anguished little girl with just one wish: to become an actor. I debuted in live theater at 14 with Dario Niccodemi’s ‘La Nemica.’
- In the morning, I’m like the Antonioni movies. I’m little sad. I haven’t the courage to start the day. In the evenings, I’m happier, more alive – like the character I play in ‘An Almost Perfect Affair.’
- Despite what people say about my major film roles, I’m not a dull or monotonous woman searching for self-identity.
- I am unwilling to strip completely before the cameras.
