“Education is the most important thing.”
Eva Green about her strict upbringing, Charity - and her visit to a Hallig.
Montblanc couldn’t have chosen a more elegant ambassador. The actress with the ice blue eyes presented a pen in the store at the Neuen Wall; a part of the proceeds will go to Unicef. Side by side with the store manager Lutz Bethge she tested the quality of the writing instrument and shared that personally she also doesn’t have anything against a few written lines: “It’s been a while since I got a real love letter. A pity.”
Eva attended more than one Montblanc event yesterday in St. Petersburg, she visited the Boutique and was at the Gala Concert. I’ve also added a few more pics from the Award Ceremony.
And with thanks to Lorna, an interview from Total Film (UK) - “Franklyn” was just released on DVD and Blu-ray in the UK.
Still in St. Petersburg - Eva attended Montblanc’s Award Ceremony and Press Conference of the White Nights Festival today. I’ve also replaced the MQs with big versions of Montblanc’s Hamburg event.
Bond girl Eva Green is easily pleased. She’s French, a huge Hollywood star, and has kissed the likes of Daniel Craig - but give her a hand-written letter, and she’s yours.
She told me about a letter from The Golden Compass writer Philip Pullman: “It wasn’t an email, he took the time to write it personally, I framed it.”
See guys? You can get a Bond girl with some paper and nice handwriting…
No rest for Eva - today she attendend Montblanc’s White Nights Festival Reception and Gala Dinner in St. Petersburg. The White Nights Festival is an annual international arts festival consisting of ballet, opera and music performances.
UPDATE: Added more pics from both the St. Petersburg and the Hamburg events.
Eva Green has said she doesn’t care what people think of her clothes.
The actress, who is known for her quirky style, said she makes a special effort in front of the cameras but doesn’t care what people think of her choice of outfits.
“I want to wear something that I wouldn’t wear every day, I like to be a bit eccentric and I know lots of people say ‘Oh my god blah’ but I don’t care, I want to have my style, I like to try something new,” she said.
“If I have to go to events I want to make it special,” she added.
The 28-year-old from Paris said she wishes some British high street stores would expand to her homeland.
“I love Topshop, I don’t know why they don’t have one in France because it is so great,” she said.
The Bond girl, who starred alongside Daniel Craig in Casino Royale said her favourite outfit in the film was a forties style green dress.
She added: “I couldn’t keep it afterwards, with the Bond films they do exhibitions with the objects used in the films, so I was unable to keep it.”
Thanks to Catherine for the “Womb” still! It actually isn’t ‘new’, but a differently cropped and better quality version of what we have seen before.
Eva also attended the Presentation of Mont Blanc’s new writing instrument “Signature for Good” yesterday in Hamburg, Germany. The goal of the sale is to collect at least 1.5 million dollars for UNICEF in the next 12 months.
Eva Green says she has never seen herself as a Bond Girl.
The actress - who starred opposite Daniel Craig in 2006’s Casino Royale - also revealed she doesn’t believe she’ll fall victim to the ‘Bond Girl curse’ because her character was a passionate, intelligent woman.
“I’ve never seen myself as a Bond Girl, but to me there is the character, I took it as a normal character,” said the French star.
Eva continued: “I think it is good as an actor to do big movies as well as independent ones. We made a movie that was very successful and that got people interested.”
Some women, including Daniela Bianchi and Izabella Scorupco, made appearances as Bond Girls but were seldom heard of again afterwards.
However Eva seems to be taking a different turn, with two films, Cracks and Womb, due to be released later this year.
Eva Green thinks Matt Smith will make an “amazing” Doctor Who.
The Bond girl, who stars alongside Matt in their new flick Womb, thinks he will be great at the role.
She said: “He’s great, he is very instinctive, very eccentric, very unusual and very unique which is good for an actor.”
She added: “He is very, very funny, he can do anything.”
However, Eva doesn’t actually watch the show herself.
“I live in France so I am not very familiar with the Doctor Who,” she explained. “But I know he will do an amazing job.”
The film, which comes out later this year, sees a woman cloning her lover after he dies suddenly.
Eva Green said she admires Angelina Jolie for her “good heart”.
The Bond Girl revealed she’s impressed by the Changeling star’s dedication to good causes, saying: “What Angelina Jolie does is fantastic, she has a great heart and she’s very, very involved and it is important.”
Eva is doing her own bit for charity and has launched Montblanc’s Meisterstuck special edition pen as part of their Signature For Good campaign, which raises money for Unicef’s worldwide education and literacy programmes.
“If you can help, and your image can help to raise money or to make people understand things faster or clearer you should,” the French actress said.
Eva went on: “I read somewhere that there are more than 150 million people who can’t read which is kind of crazy, it’s like a different planet.
“To help people in the third world get educated and learn how to read and write is so important, I mean it is such an important human right.”
Eva Green has said playing a lesbian was “exactly the same” as playing a straight character.
The former Bond Girl portrays a 1930s boarding school teacher who seduces one of her female pupils in forthcoming film Cracks, but wasn’t phased by acting opposite someone of the same sex.
“It is exactly the same - it doesn’t make a difference whether it is a woman or a man,” the Casino Royale beauty said.
Eva said the subject matter of the new flick - due out later this year - is “quite taboo”.
“It is about a passionate relationship, it is good, intense and quite an unusual story,” she said.
Asked whether she thought it might cause an uproar, the French actress said: “I don’t know, I haven’t seen it yet, to me it more of a love story and how far you can go. It is about obsession and innocence, it is very interesting.”
Eva attended the Mont Blanc Signature for Good event at the Mont Blanc Sloane Street store today - here are a few pics of her leaving the store. More pics from the actual event will be added later!
UPDATE: Added more!
UPDATE 2: Added a few more of Eva leaving the store.
Eva arrived in Cannes and attended the amfAR Cinema Against AIDS 2009 benefit that took place tonight - and surprises not just in a gorgeous pink dress (Dior maybe?) but also with a new hair colour. Eva is a redhead!
A few pics for you to admire, I will add more as they appear.
Just in case there are some Romanians with access to a scanner visiting us, Eva is gracing the cover of the Romanian magazine Bolero this May. You can view the cover here.
I’ve scanned Film TV today with a special article on “Franklyn”. I apologize but I currently have absolutely no time to translate the articles/interviews, or to make highlights of the most important parts. So if any Italian-speaking fan is willing to do so, the other fans will greatly appreciate, I’m sure of it.
I can only share this tidbit for now: Producer Jeremy Thomas has been on good terms with Eva Green since The Dreamers and she has showed interest for the project since the beginning. Ryan Phillippe was glad to show his experience in martial arts, and wanted to play without a stuntman, even the scenes where he wears a mask.
UK Magazine Alert: Eva is featured in the new issue of GQ UK with Simon Pegg on the cover. I won’t be able to provide any scans, at least not before next week. So if you can buy it or have it, please consider donating scans!
Mickey Rourke and Eva Green are attached to star in a remake of the 1986 film Mona Lisa directed by Larry Clark (Kids). Mona Lisa is a remake of the movie that made Bob Hoskins famous back in 1986. Neil Jordan’s Mona Lisa was about an ex-con who becomes the driver for a high-priced call girl played by Cathy Tyson. Michael Caine was also in it as a mob boss.

Yes, confirmed. But under reservations because of EG and MR’s schedules. Until further notice, they’re both attached to the project. Attached is the word. Hayden Christensen was once attached to it as well. Let’s see how it goes.
My offline life has been keeping me beyond busy, so don’t take it personally if you emailed me and I didn’t reply yet or didn’t upload your eventual contribution. I really appreciate your feedback, visits and contributions! Don’t ever doubt it! I’ll try to reply when I can and if your email needs a reply. Hopefully I miss any. A robot would be very helpful right now.
Many thanks to Tascha for this new and beyond beautiful shot of Eva in “Womb”. Tascha has also sent me some very interesting and cool photos of “Eva’s London” that I’ll be posting at the end of the week.
