More quotes by Julie Delpy
I've directed five films and I've proven that people have made money with my films - many people have made money with my films.
Julie Delpy
People around you that you feel you're close to, are they really wishing you good things, you know?
Julie Delpy
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.
Julie Delpy
Very quickly I realized that directing is a combination of things: It's visual, it's directing the actors, it's telling a story. And people don't always mention this part of directing, but it's also knowing how to really edit something into something that makes sense.
Julie Delpy
I actually love Scorsese comedies. He's an underrated comedy director. I think his comedies are some of the best comedies ever made.
Julie Delpy
Maybe I would get the chance to be financed for a small romantic comedy, but a war movie by a 28-year-old woman about Japanese soldiers? No one was going to go for that. It's easy to just steal an idea because it's very safe.
Julie Delpy

Julie Delpy
You can never replace anyone because everyone is made up of such beautiful specific details.
Julie Delpy

Julie Delpy
Isn't everything we do in life a way to be loved a little more?
Julie Delpy
You're never totally sure. I shouldn't say that because you have to pretend you're completely self-secure all the time. But, the truth is, I know what I'm doing. I think I know what I'm doing.
Julie Delpy
I've proven that I'm not a complete failure. Every film has done well. It's like, So, okay, when do I get my deal at Warner Bros?
Julie Delpy
Few years ago, I said something about the Academy being very white male, which is the reality, and I was slashed to pieces by the media.
Julie Delpy
My therapist in Paris once told me that being creative is a better form of therapy for me than sitting on his couch.
Julie Delpy
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.
Julie Delpy
I love the acting process. What I don't like is what's around it. The auditions and being rejected every other day. The look thing. That you have to lose weight, that you have to do Botox.
Julie Delpy
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
I hate that whole Tarantino thing about beating up women and killing them and chopping up. Just because you have the mind of a 12 year old.
Julie Delpy
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
The condition of being an actress can be unbearable.
