More quotes by Noah Baumbach
When I was a kid, I would fantasize about my own funeral.
Noah Baumbach
When I meet certain filmmakers, sometimes you sit down and you do have some kind of shorthand. It can be fun to see them as someone who has been through similar experiences, but also as someone who just loves film. You can talk with them about films in a way that feels really free.

There was a telemarketing job one summer in high school that I was rejected for. I still walk by the building that I actually had the interview in. It's still in New York, and I always think about that job and why I didn't get it.
Noah Baumbach
I'm always looking for overlooked post-Dylan singer-songwriter records from the '70s.
Noah Baumbach
I read all the time. Sometimes I get asked if I've thought about writing a novel.
Noah Baumbach
I'm interested in music as an extension of character.
Noah Baumbach
I don't like when you necessarily know that this is the end of the movie. I like when a movie ends abruptly. You go through this, and some of the scenes are uncomfortable, and some are funny - and then suddenly it's over.
Noah Baumbach
I like having associations with locations beyond their meaning for the specific movie.
Noah Baumbach
There's always some generational-guys-hanging-out movie that is made every few years, I think, and some of them are great.
Noah Baumbach
I find a lot of writing happens when you're not actually at the computer. So I carry a notebook.
