"You know that his biggest strength without fail is making women look beautiful. When Mario turns to you and says, 'It’s beautiful, but I think it would work better naked, no?' How can one refuse? I do think it’s important for young women to know that magazine covers are retouched. People don’t really look like that. In films I might look glamorous, but I’ve been in hair and make-up for two hours. With the nudity in 'The Reader', for example, even I was like, 'Damn, I look good.' It was a bit of body make-up. I don’t believe in pretending those things don’t go on."
