Korine quotes about her

I adore them as a couple, too.

Here are some:


Dazed: Do you think you would work again with Chloe in a film?

Korine: In the future the more she works with other directors, the less interested in her I become.

Dazed: Do you really mean that?

Korine: I totally mean that, and that's not to say that she shouldn't be working with other directors. If she likes the script, she should do what she wants to do. I mean that for almost anyone.

Dazed: Do you think she's one of the best actresses of her generation?

Korine: Definitely. I don't even think she has any competition. Because I don't think she's scared of taking on characters. I don't think of Chloe as a leading woman. I think of her more as a character actor, which is the only kind of actor I would ever be interested in.

For the last five years, they have been seeing each other. "It's been on and off," says Harmony. "Five years except for a couple of months here and there." It's a partnership fuelled by a sharp professional dynamic; they thrive off each other, test each other and support each other. He describes her offbeat realist acting as "amazing," and writes parts with her in mind. "Our similarities are definitely an attraction," he says. She in turn advises him, designs costumes, and helps him cast. Chloë is his voice of reason. "She's a good girl," he says. "She very rarely messes up. I mess up a lot."

“She is my love and my muse", he will say.

She is his north, his south, his east, his west. He encourages her to fulfill her ‘many talents,’ to be more confident, talking approvingly of her nascent directing skills.



Korine talks in awestruck tones of Sevigny’s organised mind. “As soon as you get off the bed, the bed is made! When I wake up in the morning, the first thing I think about is, ‘What the hell am I gonna do for the rest of the day?’ I’ll walk around the house smoking cigarettes for an hour.”

“You’re jealous of my domestic ability?” Sevigny asks incredulously.

“It’s true! She’s very much the pragmatist, and her disposition is very even. She does have her moments, these outbreaks...”



McLean: Was Kimberly Peirce a hard director?

Sevigny: She was a little intrusive at times.

McLean: In the orgasm scene?

Sevigny: Ah [she says, the exhalation turning into a sigh]. I don’t like to recall that scene...

Korine: Let’s put it this way: it was a fake orgasm.

Sevigny: Very. It was her direction. She wanted it to be, you know, huge. And that’s what I did.

Korine: She wanted her to have an over-the-top lesbian org. And Chloe is very not into the over-the-top lesbo org.

Sevigny: Heeurgh heeurgh!

Korine: She is a proper woman.

There's a few more, but I can't think of the article titles to look them up right now.

When I find them, I'll post them.

It seems they truly loved one another, and probably still do deep down.

I know many years have passed since their split, but from what I've read, they were incredibly close and were best friends as well as lovers.

Everything happened for them at the same time; while they were close friends (KIDS), and then when they were together romantically.

Also, they were best friends before he acquired any fame/notoriety, and that can mean a lot to a person, or both parties. There's a deep trust there; knowing that the other isn't with you simply because of your fame/money/etc.
