Isabelle Huppert, who returns to the cinema with the film “The Richest Woman in the World”, made a surprising confession in an interview.
Retirement? Isabelle Huppert clearly doesn’t know. The actress is already back on the big screen in the film The richest woman in the world, very freely inspired by the story of the late heiress of the L’Oréal group, Liliane Bettencourt. The opportunity for the actress, now 72 years old, to confide in promo.
Isabelle Huppert, “very bad for a long time“: what has it”really anxious“
Invited by Konbini spoke about the films of her life and her movie favorites in a video store, Isabelle Huppert also confided her trauma with a particular film. The icon of French cinema, doubly rewarded at the César and at the Cannes Film Festival, admitted that she was not a big fan of horror cinema.
However, Tobe Hooper’s cult film, Texas Chainsaw Massacre – released in 1974 in the United States but visible in France only in 1982 after years of censorship –changed her forever! “I have never felt so bad after a film. It really worried me, I was very, very bad for a long time before recovering”she admitted. Before going any further: “I think I took a little painkiller.”
“That wouldn’t be a problem for me“
However, Isabelle Huppert does not close any doors. She could even star in a horror film without hesitation! “I think it was Jeanne Moreau who said: ‘Spectator and actress are not the same job’. And that’s very well seen!”she reminded Konbini. Before adding: “It’s very curious actually, I don’t think it would scare me at all to shoot it. But that’s the strength of cinema, cinema is about making us believe.”
And to the actress, expected next year in the film Illustrious unknownto add with a smile on his lips: “So it wouldn’t be a problem for me.”. We would therefore not be surprised to see the mother of Lolita, Lorenzo and Angelo – three children born from her love story with director Ronald Chammah -, starring in a horror film in the coming years!
