More quotes by Noah Baumbach
I like shooting in New York because I have such a connection to the city. I have so many memories there.
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'm sure I've said some pretty bad pick-up lines.
Noah Baumbach
When I make a movie, I have both a specific and vague, amorphous dream idea of what the movie is going to be. Of course, I don't actually know what it's going to be, but I'm still striving to get to some place with it.
Noah Baumbach
It's kind of major, learning to drive. I feel like it kicked up other stuff in my life.
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
I think it's always interesting how music means different things to different people, and people who overthink it are looking to in some ways show off with music, versus people who just respond to a song and decide to sing it.
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
I'm interested in music as an extension of character.
Noah Baumbach
I do like having books on my shelves. I do value that life.
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
Being articulate, my parents could make anything sound reasonable.
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 always looking for overlooked post-Dylan singer-songwriter records from the '70s.
Noah Baumbach
I find a lot of writing happens when you're not actually at the computer. So I carry a notebook.
Noah Baumbach
Friends of friends had bands in college or in their early 20s and had a moment where they had some kind of interest from a record label or manager. It's always interesting how people handle those decisions and those moments.
Noah Baumbach
Wes Anderson grew up in Houston, and he and I talk about Manhattan in similar ways, as a kind of fantasy world.
Noah Baumbach
I think I've always been drawn to the notion of talk as cinematic.
Noah Baumbach
It's always really special to be at the New York Film Festival, and always a real privilege.
Noah Baumbach
I like to try to keep things as relaxed and easy as possible. I mean, movies generally attract a lot of people who like to cause fires, so they can later try to put them out. But I don't like that kind of thing.
