Once, I was a bigger star than Greta Garbo.

There's still a bit of a problem, in that so many leading English roles are taken by American or French actresses.

I once literally had a casting director ask my agent, 'Can she play anything other than a drunk?'

I could be the Greta Garbo of comedy, very secluded, but Garbo had a man who was beyond rich to support her.

One actress can't challenge or change anything.

My sis, Gabi, is also an actor and singer.

As a young actor, I booked a movie in the U.S. I didn't speak any English at the time, so I learned my lines phonetically when I auditioned for it.

There wasn't a single good character in 'Titanic' who was English and this is typical.

I remember once when I told Lindsay Anderson at a party that acting was just a sophisticated way of playing cowboys and Indians he almost had a fit.

Anybody can say she's an actress. It's another thing to get a job.
