I get to enter into the world...

I get to enter into the world the director has created: to live these different lives on top of my own life.

I kind of grew up in the indie world, and now that sort of writing and material is on television.

Parker Posey 25 quotes

I like finding things in locations where I've worked and things from down South and things from flea markets or even the sidewalks.

Parker Posey 25 quotes

I sang in 'Waiting for Guffma...

I sang in 'Waiting for Guffman,' and I sang in 'A Mighty Wind.' I can carry a tune, but I don't like that Broadway singing.

We shot 'Party Girl' on film, and I remember being told, 'We need to get this in two takes because we don't have a lot of film in the mag right now!'

Parker Posey 25 quotes

It hasn't really made it easier getting film work. It's not like I can call up a studio or a producer and say - insert haughty voice here - 'It's Parker. I guess you might know me as the indie queen. I'm wondering if you have any projects for me to be in.'

Parker Posey 25 quotes

With 'Dazed and Confused,' I got the high school experience I didn't get to have.

Parker Posey 25 quotes

I think people probably think...

I think people probably think I self-start, but I don't... I'm an actor, and I like to be of use to the director. To be a muse.

Parker Posey 25 quotes

Louis C.K. was able to make it happen. His producers don't bug him. He's able to go into his cave and write exactly what he wants to write, and there are no decisions made by committee, and you have a singular voice, and everyone's like, 'Oh my God! We love this.'

Parker Posey 25 quotes

I'm a good girl, you know? But I'm from the South, and there are some powerful women down there, and very theatrical.

Parker Posey 25 quotes

Sometimes I go to movies, and...

Sometimes I go to movies, and it's just a bombardment, and I'm not entertained by them - I'm assaulted by them! And I know I sound like such a drama queen, but I find that really strange.

Parker Posey 25 quotes

It's really weird to be taken...

It's really weird to be taken seriously for what you're wearing. It makes me want to wear a uniform.

Parker Posey 25 quotes

I feel like there's such a re...

I feel like there's such a responsibility, when you make a film, to enlighten people, to make them think, to make them laugh, or even just to be entertaining.

Parker Posey 25 quotes

It was just such a demeaning ...

It was just such a demeaning thing to do, being in silent movies. They'd call you up and tell you, 'Hey, jump off this building!' and they'd give you a hundred bucks, and you'd do it.

Parker Posey 25 quotes

You really don't get paid in ...

You really don't get paid in these independent movies, no matter how many people see them.

Parker Posey 25 quotes

There have been periods of my career that I haven't worked for a really long time, like seven or eight months.

The sound of a golf game is very different than the sound of a football game.

Parker Posey 25 quotes

I wouldn't say I was a queen....

I wouldn't say I was a queen. Maybe a little elf.

Parker Posey 25 quotes

But it's fun to be something,...

But it's fun to be something, have that, and you don't have to be real. It's like, comedians. They go on and they're doing all these jokes. I would be like that if I were more awake.

Parker Posey 25 quotes

I think to do a proper indepe...

I think to do a proper independent movie, in my experience, it takes 22 or 23 days to shoot. That was 'Party Girl' or 'House of Yes.' But now with the digital camera, the budgets have gotten smaller, and the days have gotten shorter.
