More quotes by Noah Baumbach
Being articulate, my parents could make anything sound reasonable.
Noah Baumbach
I'm curious how people build up the codes that they live their life by, and how they come to think that that's the best way for them to function.
Noah Baumbach
I've had times in my life when I really haven't been able to figure myself out.
Noah Baumbach
I'm interested in music as an extension of character.
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'm sure I've said some pretty bad pick-up lines.
Noah Baumbach
I like having associations with locations beyond their meaning for the specific movie.
Noah Baumbach
It's kind of a crazy art form, movies, in that you have to get it right the day you do it, generally.
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
I think I was going through a lot of change at 27, but I didn't know it was happening until it was over.
Noah Baumbach
When I start a movie, there will be certain films that I watch again just because the vibe seems right.
Noah Baumbach
I think I've always been drawn to the notion of talk as cinematic.
Noah Baumbach
I do like having books on my shelves. I do value that life.
Noah Baumbach
I live in Manhattan now, because, in a way, it was my fantasy.
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
I think sometimes bad behaviour can be liberating for certain people. They need to behave badly to find themselves - to go off path to find their path. You see it with kids all the time: They're testing boundaries, and I think that's healthy.
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
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
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 really like my first movie a lot, Kicking and Screaming. I think it's a - I'm very pleased and proud of that movie, but it wasn't the - it wasn't Citizen Kane right out of the box, you know? It wasn't Sex, Lies and Videotape.
