Maria Schneider - biography

“After Last Tango in Paris, people were insulting me in the street.  In restaurants, waiters would bring me butter with a funny smile.”

“When I read Last Tango in Paris, I didn’t see anything that worried me.  I was 20.  I didn’t want to be a star, much less a scandalous actress - simply to be in cinema.  Later, I realised I’d been completely manipulated by Bertolucci and Brando.”

“Bertolucci is more of a gangster than a movie director.  He’s one of my enemies.”
