Famous Nicole Holofcener Quotes

“I guess I always knew going into the movie that casting that part would be difficult. Oliver just felt likeable. I felt it would be hard to dislike this man. I don't know why, but I'm sure other directors have felt the same when casting him. Oliver is goofy yet formidable, smart but likeable... I didn't want the character of Alex to be nasty or demonised. I wanted him to be struggling with his actions.”

“But then male directors also have a hard time getting their movies made... not as hard as women but it's a tough time for any movie this size.
