More quotes by Parker Posey
I think Jesse Eisenberg is such a great writer. He was a great director and really tough.
Parker Posey
I would like a nice, powerful, mind-altering substance. Preferably one that will make my unborn children grow gills.
Parker Posey
Time is weird in your twenties. It's intense, and you feel like it's running out. But you'll get to thirty and see you are still here on the planet.
Parker Posey
I think movies are now like going to a museum and seeing the latest exhibit - people just aren't going. It really is a dying art form. It feels frustrating.
Parker Posey
You're making a fantasy. You're making something real out of a fantasy. And then it no longer exists. It's heartbreaking to leave behind. I was devastated after Waiting for Guffman. I had never gotten so close to people I've worked with.
Parker Posey
My grandmother is this amazingly theatrical woman. She acted like a movie star, as far as looks and attitude, kind of like Susan Hayward.
Parker Posey
I did do a presentation pilot with Jesse Eisenberg and he's wonderful. He's such a great writer. He directed me and he wrote these wonderful scripts and we're waiting to hear if marketers and advertisers think that an audience wants to look at a bad mom and her 10-year-old son in a show.
Parker Posey
You're talking to someone, to a reader, and you get to express in the way you want to. And you get to play with it. It's kind of like acting, but it's on paper.
Parker Posey
It's overshadowed, the art. We're in a really argumentative, black-and-white-thinking culture right now. There's not a lot of time to take things in.
Parker Posey
I'm having too good of a time.
Parker Posey
I haven't seen a bear in person. I've seen deer. I have lots of woodchucks on my property. And bluebirds. Foxes.
Parker Posey
I like soap opera acting. If it's done really well, there's nothing better. It's old school. It's like what those melodramas in the '30s and '40s were like
Parker Posey
My first lead role was probably 'Party Girl' in 1994.
Parker Posey
I don't want to sound like too much of a drama queen! But I'm not going to tell you, 'Oh, it's just so much fun.' It's work [working on film].
Parker Posey
It felt really good to kind of find my voice and say stuff, and to be funny, hopefully.
Parker Posey
I sold my apartment this year. It's like, Wow, this is where the arts are now.
Parker Posey
I was around New York at a time when independent cinema was at its peak and became kind of popular and mainstream. It got some hype, culturally. After that, studios started to have independent companies within their studio system, and they found bigger stars willing to do new material. That's kind of what it's turned into.
Parker Posey
Early on it was much easier to play leads, but now independent movies are being co-opted by the studio system, and they want bigger names to guarantee more audience and more numbers.
Parker Posey
You know, it's a really adult thing, for some people, to choose to not be with the one that you love.
Parker Posey
Black eyeliner says 'You've been through stuff, you know things'.
