Noah Baumbach Quotes

I’m interested in music as an extension of character Picture Quote #1

It’s nice being friends over a period of time with people whose music you like so much, or other filmmakers, seeing people change, go through trials Picture Quote #1

I guess I’m interested in people who are very sophisticated in intellectual ways, while being completely off the mark in emotional ones, with these huge blind spots in terms of their own behavior Picture Quote #1

I think I’ve always been drawn to the notion of talk as cinematic Picture Quote #1

The real achievement of Woody Allen was that he was making movies that felt very personal, and for a whole group of people, it spoke to them. Then he became an archetype, like Groucho Marx or Chaplin Picture Quote #1

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.’ Picture Quote #1

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.’ Picture Quote #1

When I was a kid, I would fantasize about my own funeral Picture Quote #1

Dance is a profession with an expiration date for many people Picture Quote #1

I was late to the Knicks. My dad was a big fan. But I first started watching baseball; I became a Red Sox fan. My dad was a Mets fan. I wanted to have my own team and league Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

I’m interested in the way major events don’t necessarily announce themselves as major events. They’re often little things - the drip, drip of life that changes people or affects people Picture Quote #1

My dad was a great movie companion. He wouldn’t diminish ‘The Jerk.’ If I liked it, he liked it. He could see it through my eyes Picture Quote #1

Adaptations are fun for me because they connect to the idea of filmmaking I had when I was a kid. I would see a movie and think: ‘I’m gonna make that movie.’ Picture Quote #1

I thought at the time of my parents’ divorce that I was upset by deeper, more profound things and I was just taking it out on the joint custody agreement. But that disruption was bad enough. That was a huge deal for a teenager Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

When you find yourself on the Internet when you’re supposed to be writing, you’ve already lost. It’s even beyond procrastination when you end up on the Internet Picture Quote #1

I like shooting in New York because I have such a connection to the city. I have so many memories there Picture Quote #1

I used a video camera, and shot on film cameras at school and stuff, but I had a lot more training as a writer. I kind of live like a writer. I get up and I write. I’ve done that my whole life Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

Being articulate, my parents could make anything sound reasonable Picture Quote #1

I’ve had great experiences or joyful experiences making a movie that people found very disturbing Picture Quote #1

It’s funny, I’m very analytical in my real life, but in terms of my films, I try to not analyze them at all and let things just go into them and let them be what they are. I mean, people ask me to this day what ‘The Squid and the Whale’ stood for, and I have no idea except that it’s an exhibit in the Natural History Museum Picture Quote #1

As a kid, I thought of myself as a funny person who secretly wanted to be serious, but now I think maybe I’m a serious person who secretly wants to be funny Picture Quote #1

I can feel pretty critical of people, and I understand that sort of feeling of when you’re going through something that’s painful, taking it out on the world and projecting onto other people, finding faults with other people because it’s harder to find faults in yourself Picture Quote #1

I do like having books on my shelves. I do value that life Picture Quote #1

Frances Ha’ is the closest final product to what I had in my head of any movie I’ve made. I’m not entirely even sure why that is Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1
