The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Olivia Thirlby
- I feel naked without jewelry. If I’m having a bad hair day, I pick something from my huge collection of hats.
- I’m such a homebody. I don’t party. I don’t drink. That may be because I got it out all out of my system before I was 18.
- I can say I love working with women. Film is a man’s world, and I really appreciate the opportunity to collaborate with women, especially young women.
- My hair had been dyed blonde for ‘Dredd.’ After ‘Dredd,’ I was really fried because of the blonde hair dye, and so I cut it into a bob with bangs and that’s how it was during ‘Being Flynn.’
- I trained in Shakespeare, and that’s all comedy, even when it’s tragedy.
- I go where the material is, and I feel like I’m looking for really strong directors. That’s the key ingredient. There are some directors I would move the sun and earth for, or stop the rotation of the planets, just to work with them.
- I don’t think I’m the world’s most die-hard sci-fi fan, but I definitely grew up watching ‘Star Trek’ religiously – all of them: the original, ‘Next Generation,’ ‘Deep Space Nine,’ ‘Voyager.’ I think sci-fi has an important place in the cinema world. Fantasy is a big part of why films actually exist.
- I had this totally impossible dream of being an actress. Trust me, just because I’m lucky enough to be doing this doesn’t make any of this less of a pipe dream. And nothing gets my juices flowing like a really great performance. To see someone on stage, I get really excited.
- ‘Red Knot’ is a film that I shot in Antarctica almost three years ago on a boat. It was a film that was improvised and it had very interesting circumstances while making the film, obviously. We were on a small boat bobbing around in Antarctica. It was a really remarkable experience.
- ‘The Movie’ is something that I made with some friends of mine in L.A. My friend, Luke Eberl, is the filmmaker. He shot this movie and asked a bunch of his friends to be involved with it. I just saw him the other day and there is no money to finish the film. But, you know, I literally have a cameo in it.
