BiographyFriends and FamilyDominique Besnehard [Associate] (Manager) :: Geneviève Sorya [Mother] :: Henry Murray [Father]Trivia and QuotesQuotes What helps me go forward is that I stay receptive, I feel that anything can happen. It`s so much better to desire than to have. . . . The moment of desire, when you know something is going to happen -- that`s the most exalting. It is always better to have a few scenes with a good director, than many scenes with a bad one.
Oh come on, it hasn`t been an unimpressive career. If you look at the number of projects I`ve been involved in, the people I`ve worked with ... But it`s perhaps true that I haven`t always made the right choices. I`ve taken parts I didn`t particularly like because I wanted to work with the director - Altman, for example. But there`s very little that I actually regret doing. I had to do most of it, I needed the money. There are one or two things I could have said yes to, though. That`s probably true. You can only perceive real beauty in a person as they get older.Trivia Adopted her stage name Anouk after playing a character of that name in her debut film, Calef`s Maison Sous la Mer in 1946. Chosen by Empire magazine as one of the 100 Sexiest Stars in film history (#56). [1995] Her acting career began when, at age 14, she was walking down the rue Colisée in the eighth arrondissement in Paris with her mother. Director Henri Calef stopped her and asked if she would like to be in a movie. In an interview with the Guardian Unlimited (December 2007) the actress said that the part she regrets not accepting most was Vicki Anderson, the insurance investigator eventually played by Faye Dunaway opposite Steve McQueen in the first Thomas Crown Affair. Was one of several actresses considered for the role of the Baroness in the film version of The Sound of Music (1965); the role ultimately went to Eleanor Parker. | ||
