Quote

My dad has always been such a great dad, and he's brought so much culture to my life. He dragged me to see every single movie at the cinématheque as a kid. I saw everything from Star Wars to Bergman.

I find most films about fashion terrible because they are caricaturish.

I would assume that there is a greater amount of joy for you in being able to write and help produce your own stuff and make a decent living, but not get rich versus always doing the other stuff that you don’t write, and make more money.

The way I work is that I never let people do an assembly. I don't like it because it shapes the film in a way that I can't really control. To me, editing is making the film and it's a huge process and editors are under-rated.

I wasn't born an artist. I was really good in science as a kid. I probably shouldn't have been an artist because I'm much more interested in science. But I was raised by artists. I can't really escape it.

Some people have bigger egos than others. You have to take a lot of abuse, and take it in and not respond, because you don't want conflicts on the movie, you don't want to start screaming at people even when they treat you - even when they're not behaving properly, because you want them to do their job, and keep on doing it.

I put my films together in Europe and it kick-starts the financing when I'm attached as an actress. It makes it easier to move forward.

I can't really explain the feeling of acting. It makes you the most insecure you can possibly be.

I didn't really fit with other kids. I had problems in school all my life and problems with authority. But my parents never did drugs or anything. They just believed in freedom in the best sense of the word.
Julie Delpy
Image
I love making movies. I love writing. I love acting. I love it, and I feel really blessed to be able to actually make a living with something I love doing.
Julie Delpy
Image
I had to trick people into giving me money for my first film. Making a romantic comedy is easier and more expected from a woman than it is to make a drama about a Japanese warrior.
Julie Delpy
Image
Too many women throw themselves into romance because they're afraid of being single, then start making compromises and losing their identity. I won't do that.
Julie Delpy
Image
Feminists is something people hate above all. Nothing worse than being a woman in this [movie] business. I really believe that.
Julie Delpy
Image
I'm dreaming about making movies for eight weeks, because it's a luxury. But time is money. That's the reality.
Julie Delpy
Image
The truth is I don't see a lot of movies. I see the Oscar films. I see the films that are sent to me and a few films throughout the year.

To make what you have in your head, I think that's what directing is.

The condition of being an actress can be unbearable.

Isn't everything we do in life a way to be loved a little more?

In real life, when you speak with each other you overlap each other, so you can't fake that. Like especially when you have no cut. In a regular film when you want people to overlap you cut it that way. It's mixing and editing.

People around you that you feel you're close to, are they really wishing you good things, you know?

For Europeans a president having an affair, especially in France, is a joke. No one cares, it would never bring this kind of trouble to a country.
