| # | Quote |
|---|---|
| 1 | [on Barbra Streisand, directing her in Yentl (1983)] She'd fix my hair ribbons, brush an eyelash off my cheek, paint my lips to match the color of the fruit on the table. I was like her little doll that she could dress up. |
| 2 | Actors are not a great breed of people, I don't think. I count myself as something of an exception. I grew up in the theater, and my values were about the work, and not being a star or anything like that. I'm not spoiled in that way, and if I fight for something, it's about the work, not about how big my trailer is. |
| 3 | I used to travel in tennis shoes; I am just not allowed to anymore. I'm an old hippie from San Francisco. |
| 4 | During my marriage to Steven, I felt like a politician's wife. There were certain things expected of me that definitely weren't me. One of my problems is that I'm very honest and direct. You pay a price for that. But then I behaved myself and I paid a price too. |
| 5 | (1977, about her decisions on working with her then partner) I would love to work for Steven [Spielberg] but, right now, I want to make it on my own first. I do not ever want to be known as "Steven Spielberg's girlfriend". |
| 6 | I get along great with directors, but I think some producers would tell you I'm a pain. They may say I'm tough to work with, but I have a great passion for what I do. I believe in fighting for it. |

| 4 | Appeared at a special screening/Q&A session of her classic film, Carrie (1976), along with the director Brian De Palma, at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' theater. [October 2007] |
| 5 | Amy's father was of Russian Jewish descent. One of Amy's maternal great-great-grandfathers, Jacob Barrett Cohen, was from a Jewish family (of both Ashkenazi and Sephardi origin) that had lived in the United States since the 1700s, with ancestors who fought in the American Revolution and the War of 1812. Amy's mother's other ancestry is English, along with Welsh, Northern Irish (Scots-Irish), and German. |
| 6 | Attended the Professional Children's School in Manhattan, New York City. |
| 7 | Amy Irving and Willie Nelson started a relationship on the set of Honeysuckle Rose (1980) (despite his marriage). However, Irving later left Nelson for Steven Spielberg. |
| 8 | Was originally going to play Marion Ravenwood in Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981), but split from her director boyfriend at the time Steven Spielberg who was responsible for the film. The two later got together again in around 1984. |
| 9 | As a favor for Robert Zemeckis, she sung "Why Don't You Do Right?" for sultry heroine Jessica Rabbit in the film Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988). Kathleen Turner supplied the character's speaking voice. However, Irving did not receive a paycheck for her work. |
| 10 | Replaced Jane Seymour in the role of Constanze Webber on the Broadway play "Amadeus" from 1981 to the show's end in 1983. |
| 11 | In 1965, she appeared in a play as a walk-on opposite Stacy Keach. |
| 12 | The scene in Carrie (1976) where her character Sue Snell is walking along the footpath to put flowers on Carrie's burnt house (dream sequence). Director Brian De Palma wanted Amy to walk backwards in that shot in order to make it look more "dreamy". That explains why a car in the background appears to be driving in reverse and birds are flying backwards. |
| 13 | Auditioned for the roles of Stephanie in Saturday Night Fever (1977) and Princess Leia Organa in Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977). |
| 14 | Desperately wanted to play the role of Lydia Maxwell in Innerspace (1987), which Steven Spielberg (her husband at the time) was working on as executive producer, but she lost the role to Meg Ryan. |
| 15 | She's completely opposed to cosmetic surgery. |
| 16 | Has appeared with her real-life mother Priscilla Pointer in seven films: Carrie (1976), Honeysuckle Rose (1980), The Competition (1980), Micki + Maude (1984), Rumpelstiltskin (1987), A Show of Force (1990) and Carried Away (1996). |
| 17 | Often co-stars with her mother, Priscilla Pointer, who usually plays her mother or mother-in-law. |
| 18 | Has two sons, Max Spielberg (born June 13, 1985), with Steven Spielberg, and Gabriel Barreto (born May 4, 1990), with Bruno Barreto. |
| 19 | In addition to being the first-ever "winner" of the Worst Supporting Actress Razzie (for her performance opposite Willie Nelson in Honeysuckle Rose (1980)), she is only one of two actors, as of 2015, to be nominated for both an Oscar and a Razzie Award for the same performance. As Barbra Streisand's "wife" in Yentl (1983), Irving got both a Best Supporting Actress Oscar nomination and a Worst Supporting Actress Razzie nomination. She did not win either award. The other such "Best" and "Worst" nominee is James Coco in Only When I Laugh (1981), he who also did not win either award. |
| 20 | Has played wife to Brazilian director Bruno Barreto since 1990 and has a son, Gabriel Barreto, by him. They eventually married in 1996. |
| 21 | Younger sister of director David Irving and Katie Irving. |
| 22 | She was the subject of a running joke in the comic book E-Man, published by Charlton Comics and later by First Comics. One of the supporting characters, Teddy Q, a sentient (though mute - think Snoopy-like) koala, was in love with her, and frequently sent her fan mail. |
| 23 | When she reprised her role from Carrie (1976) as Sue Snell in The Rage: Carrie 2 (1999), Irving can be seen banging on the door of the ill-fated party to be allowed in. She did the same thing in the original film in which her character is banging on the door of the gym to be let in during the famous bloodletting prom scene. |
| 24 | Listed as one of twelve "Promising New Actors of 1979" in John Willis' Screen World, Vol. 31 (1979). |
| 25 | Daughter of Priscilla Pointer and Jules Irving. Niece of Richard Irving. |
| 26 | Her prenuptial agreement with filmmaker Steven Spielberg netted her an estimated cool $100m when the couple separated in 1989. |
