More quotes by 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 like having associations with locations beyond their meaning for the specific movie.
Noah Baumbach
I'm sure I've said some pretty bad pick-up lines.
Noah Baumbach
It's always really special to be at the New York Film Festival, and always a real privilege.
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
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.
Noah Baumbach
I wouldn't say 'Frances Ha' is autobiographical, but it's definitely very personal.
Noah Baumbach
I try to write 'and it's all very funny' after each scene description so that the reader can imagine the movie in their head.
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
Defining yourself by your taste is easier than defining yourself by any genuine stance on something.
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 read all the time. Sometimes I get asked if I've thought about writing a novel.
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
Wes Anderson's films, 6-year-olds are crazy about them.
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
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 anxiety is dangerous, but it makes you think it's your friend.
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 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.
