Binoche


The wonderfully charming Juliette Binoche paid us a visit today. She talked about her films, including 'Blue', 'The Unbearable Lightness of Being', 'The English Patient', and 'Chocolat'. I asked her whether she'd ever worked with a director that she found impossible, and what qualities in a Director inhibited her creative process. She laughed a little about working with Jacques Rouffio. Initially she felt he would be a nightmare director but they came to have a very good working relationship because he was open to collaboration. She said the only time it was difficult to work with Directors was when they insisted on controlling their project and not allowing any input from their performers.

But seriously what was I thinking? I should have asked her what it was like to make out with Johnny Depp.
