Diane Kruger Loves The Simple Life In Victor Demarchelier Images For Town & Country

German actor Diane Kruger is styled by Nicoletta Santoro in Victor Demarchelier images for Town & Country's August 2016 issue. Interviewed by Danielle Stein Chizzik, the trilingual movie star with homes in three cities and a long relationship with partner Joshua Jackson explains her preferred route in life in 'Actress Diane Kruger Lives The Simple Life'.

Kruger appeared this spring in 'Sky', the third film the German-born actor has made with her close friend and producing partner, French director Fabienne Berthaud. One tribe of feminists was quick to pounce on Kruger, whose character plays a French tourist with a jerk husband, ditched in the middle of an American road trip.

Kruger quickly used her "newfound freedom to shack up with another less than ideal mate, played by Norman Reedus." Asked about the charge that her character is somehow an affront to feminism, she rolls her eyes with a metaphorical shrug. "Love is the most important thing in life, and it happens when you least expect it. I feel like people have a bad understanding of what feminism actually means."

But make no mistake Kruger advises, she is a feminist -- one who can't vote for Hillary, but is a big fan.  The Tarantino-lover actor is particularly attuned to issues of fair pay and treatment on the job. "I have yet to be paid the same amount as a male co-star. And absolutely I've been labeled a bitch, or difficult to work with, when I've spoken up about something," she says. "Or it's, 'She doesn't really know what she's talking about.' "
