I was offered a free villa in Hollywood, but I said no thank you, I prefer to live in Italy.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I would like to get a house in Tuscany: aside from New York, cities do not appeal to me anymore.
If I spoke Italian, I'd be in Italy in a minute. I love the food, I love the way people live there. I mean, it really is my idea of paradise.
I also want to go to an Italian island and do cuisine properly with some famous Italian chef and, like, his mother.
I like the world, but I feel very, very Italian. I love the small parts of my country: Tuscany, Capri in the winter. I don't like big towns.
I think I went to Italy initially for the art, architecture, food and history, but I stayed there because of the people in Cortona.
I love Italy and I say I am from Italy wherever I go.
I love places that have an incredible history. I love the Italian way of life. I love the food. I love the people. I love the attitudes of Italians.
I'm happy living in the countryside. We are 30 minutes away from Milan, so I can drive in for dinner and drive out. It's not a question of living in the country or in the city, it's really a question of living in a tight, close-knit clan that makes the difference.
I couldn't settle in Italy - it was like living in a foreign country.
I wanted to go to Rome. I got an offer to do an Italian film and I went.
