People think that the directors direct actors. No. Really, what the director's doing is directing the audience's eye through the film.

More quotes by Julianne Moore
It's pretty boring, working by yourself. The scene happens in between the two of you, and then you don't know what it's going to be because it's a kind of combustion. So, you do take something from every actor you work with.
Julianne Moore
If you're 50, you're never going to be 50 ever again, so enjoy being 50. If you sit through the year wishing you were younger, before you know it, it's going to be over, and you're going to be 51.
Julianne Moore
Everybody has the right to marry the person they love and be represented as a couple and family... It's something that people will look back on in years to come and say, 'I can't believe it took so long for us to recognize this.' It'll be like segregation and giving women the right to vote.
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've heard it said that winning an Oscar means you live five years longer. If that's true I want to thank the academy because my husband is younger than me.
Julianne Moore
Either you like a person or you don't like a person. I don't have to love somebody to work with them. I'm a professional person. But when you get the bonus of really liking someone and really connecting with them and really enjoying them, it's a fantastic thing.
Julianne Moore
I like stories about people. I like things that are human and different. I want to be as engaged in my work as I am in reading a book. I want to be electrified by the films I do.
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
What gives you pleasure and joy? Let those be the things that lead you forward in life.
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
Life is full of compromises, and whether or not you're willing to negotiate.
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
Men aren't asked about age. Men aren't asked about their children. Not that these things aren't important, but I do feel like it becomes reductive when a woman's life becomes, 'Talk to me about your kids and how you feel about plastic surgery.'
Julianne Moore
I think the thing about relationships is that you're always thinking Oh, it's going to go bad. [...] But then, it's the same thing that all the silly magazines say, Take time for yourselves. Go away.
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
You know, comedy's hard. With drama, you have a responsibility to the emotional truth, but with comedy, you have emotional truth and you have technique on top of it.
Julianne Moore
Art is an expression of who we are, what we believe, and what we dream about.
Julianne Moore
People with Alzheimer's deserve to be seen, so that we can find a cure!
Julianne Moore
Ever since there's been a Hollywood, they remake a movie every 20 years.
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.
