“My mother Marlène Jobert was scared for me to become an actress like her. She knew I was too sensitive and fragile. So I have learned from her how to appear to be tougher than I really am. She said: 'You want to be an actress? Then act as if you are not scared of anything.' Her advice made me feel alive. I was constantly encouraged to express myself and truly live my life."
