Isabelle: I entered this world on the Champs-Elysees, 1959. La trottoir du Champs Elysees. And do you know what my very first words were? New York Herald Tribune! New York Herald Tribune!



Isabelle, from The Dreamers, is one of my favorite female characters ever. Eva Green is beyond perfect in that role.
