More quotes by Noah Baumbach
Music is like color or acting or whatever. It's really something I think about from the beginning. Not that I always know exactly what I'm going to use, but I don't see it as something like, Let's find some songs now! after we have a finished film.
Noah Baumbach
I suppose some studio executive would say it's death for a comedy if people aren't all laughing in the same places, but I find with my movies that people laugh in very different places. I can't control it.
Noah Baumbach
I love black-and-white movies that are about contemporary subjects.
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
How you start the movie is critical. And how often you feel that there's no reason for how it's starting.
Noah Baumbach
I get a lot of responses to my movies. Some people say, 'Oh, I thought it was really funny - I hope that's okay!' And my answer always is 'Yes. It's totally okay.'
Noah Baumbach
I think I've always been drawn to the notion of talk as cinematic.
Noah Baumbach
Other people have worked with big studios and maintained control over their movies. I see no reason why it wouldn't work for me.
Noah Baumbach
I made two movies very young, and then I had trouble getting a movie made, and so - which was both, I think, a plus and a minus. It was a minus because it made me unhappy.
Noah Baumbach
Dance is a profession with an expiration date for many people.
Noah Baumbach
I guess I probably took New York for granted. Growing up, playing in the street, going down to the Avenue to the record store and to the grocery store and stuff like that.
Noah Baumbach
I'm always looking for overlooked post-Dylan singer-songwriter records from the '70s.
Noah Baumbach
I've always felt some kind of connection to people who are kind of over-smart. People who over-think things to the point of some sort of paralysis, and I think that certainly can be me on any given day.
Noah Baumbach
When I was a kid, I would fantasize about my own funeral.
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 kind of live like a writer. I get up and I write. I've done that my whole life.
Noah Baumbach
I'm a huge proponent of therapy and analysis, but it's something that, in a nonprofessional way, can be abused.
Noah Baumbach
I wouldn't say 'Frances Ha' is autobiographical, but it's definitely very personal.
Noah Baumbach
Will Ferrell's made a lot of brilliant movies.
Noah Baumbach
I've had times in my life when I really haven't been able to figure myself out.
