No I do not model anymore. I am just doing photo-shoots for film promotions. It is more celebrity shoots, before I was really modeling, now it is different.
I grew up in Rome yes, but at seventeen years old I moved to New York where I studied acting while modelling. I lived there for seven years. I was travelling a lot as a model, so I was going around the world. I lived in Singapore, I lived in Argentine, I lived in Thailand and also in Hong Kong. I lived in a lot of places and I also love to travel so I went both for work as well as to discover things.
That's true. She didn't speak French at all when we cast her in late June. She worked tirelessly seven days a week until we started shooting the film in early February. I gave her a lot of freedom to feel the part and play it instinctively, and she delivered a mesmerizing performance.
Not a word. I did learn French in six months. I was doing six-hour french lessons a day and a lot of days I was crying and ready to give up.
