It was a great circumstance when I received the script of [Chloe] and Atom [Egoyan] said he wanted me to do it. I was inclined to say 'yes' immediately.

More quotes by Julianne Moore
I still battle with my deeply boring diet of, essentially, yogurt and breakfast cereal and granola bars. I hate dieting. I hate having to do it to be the 'right' size. I'm hungry all the time. I think I'm a slender person, but the industry apparently doesn't. All actresses are hungry all the time, I think.
Julianne Moore
I've always wanted to go where the work was or where I was wanted. The idea that it can be planned is one I let go of a long time ago.
Julianne Moore
We shouldn't require our politicians to be movie stars. Then again, we're all influenced by charisma. It's hard not to be. We all collectively fall for it.
Julianne Moore
We impose order and narrative on everything in order to understand it. Otherwise, there's nothing but chaos.
Julianne Moore
Men aren't asked about their children.

I always say about acting: the audience doesn't come to see you, they come to see themselves. So if you're able to give them an experience where they feel, 'Oh, my gosh, that's me, that's my story, they know!' then you've done your job.
Julianne Moore
I read a lot, I always read. I like to be inside a story. When I started acting, even in high school, it sort of felt like that's as close as you can get to being inside a book, and I feel that way even with movies more so, because you've kind of created this imaginary world, and everybody is colluding to create it.
Julianne Moore
You have to remember that Hollywood is in the business of making movies that they can sell tickets to, they're not in the business of finding great roles for actors.
Julianne Moore
Comedy is ridiculously hard. And if the rhythm is not right, if the music or the line is not right, it's not funny.
Julianne Moore
I was lucky enough to come in at the beginning of the independent film movement, and it's really shaped my life and my career.
Julianne Moore
People think that the directors direct actors. No. Really, what the director's doing is directing the audience's eye through the film.
Julianne Moore
Movie studios aren't making too many dramas anymore they're in the superhero business. Material for television is much, much stronger for actors now.
Julianne Moore
I'm not supposed to communicate something that's completely unrealistic.
Julianne Moore
I don't consider myself very brave in any sense. I'm interested in this kind of behavior. My job is to try to make it realistic and emotionally resonant. That's the most challenging thing, to bring emotional resonance to what you do as an actor.
Julianne Moore
I love it, to have the same crew. I'm not married. I don't have children. My 17-year-old dog died. I'm kind of on my own. So I really like having the same camera guy for four years. I love looking around and seeing the hair and makeup people who have been there from the beginning.
Julianne Moore
There was a period of time in America where the advertising world actually went to the housewives of America and had them write jingles that would appeal to them. It was actually brilliant marketing.
Julianne Moore
Life is full of compromises, and whether or not you're willing to negotiate.
Julianne Moore
One of the things that I love about L'Oréal is that it's accessible and aspirational. Beauty doesn't have to be a mystery, and it can be available to everybody. But it's also about accessing what is most innately human, what we think is attractive.
Julianne Moore
The thing about 50 is that you've clearly reached a point where you have more of your life behind you than ahead of you, and that's a very different place to be in. You're thinking, 'I've done most of it.' I don't like that feeling. But it makes you evaluate your life and go, 'Am I doing what I want to do? Am I spending my time the way I want?'
Julianne Moore
What gives you pleasure and joy? Let those be the things that lead you forward in life.
