I had very strict parents. My two brothers were power and freedom. I was powerlessness and seclusion.

I'm lively and gay by nature.

I played at being someone else in movies and live theater, and at being myself in life's most intense, fascinating game - the game of love.

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.'

The theater is so big and dark and private. Nobody knows that I am there. I am relaxed. I forget completely I am an actress. I laugh, I applaud, I cry.

Despite what people say about my major film roles, I'm not a dull or monotonous woman searching for self-identity.

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.'

The theater is so big and dark and private. Nobody knows that I am there. I am relaxed. I forget completely I am an actress. I laugh, I applaud, I cry.

I am unwilling to strip completely before the cameras.
