Charlotte Gainsbourg , Nymphomaniac: Volume I & II

Showbiz royalty Charlotte Gainsbourg re-teams for a third time with Denmark’s controversy-generating Lars von Trier on “Nymphomaniac Volumes I & II.” Gainsbourg plays Joe, a woman whose sexual odyssey and exploits are yet another chapter in the filmmaker’s studies of tortured heroines. The actress discusses how she survived her unusual childhood as the daughter of English It Girl Jane Birkin and France’s esteemed singer-songwriter Serge Gainsbourg, her continued insecurities about her career, her determination to next focus on her singing, and what it’s like for her three children with their celebrated mother.
