More quotes by Julian Fellowes
You never know people, do you? You can work with 'em for twenty years you don't know 'em at all.
Julian Fellowes
You see, in America, it's quite standard for an actor to sign, at the beginning of a series, for five or seven years. The maximum any British agent will allow you to have over an actor is three years.
Julian Fellowes
We live a life that is often spent in crowds - parties, festivals and first nights - so it's nice to avoid them.
Julian Fellowes
A lot of actors find it impossible not to ask for the audience's sympathy. They have a need to twinkle.
Julian Fellowes
Plenty of friendships are sustainable through dinners and lunches, but will not stand a week away. So be careful with whom you go on holiday.
Julian Fellowes
I just don't believe in generalisations.
Julian Fellowes
I think Americans are wonderful film actors - the best in the world - but they are a very contemporary race and they look forward all the time.
Julian Fellowes
The moment I was introduced to my wife, Emma, at a party I thought, here she is - and 20 minutes later I told her she ought to marry me. She thought I was as mad as a rat. She wouldn't even give me her telephone number - and she wrote in her diary: A funny little man asked me to marry him.
Julian Fellowes
War makes early risers of us all.
Julian Fellowes
I mean the truth is, I've always been interested in the whole setup of the old world.
Julian Fellowes
Today, people often make the American mistake of confusing acquaintances with friends. The former are there to share life's pleasures only the latter should be invited to share one's problems.
Julian Fellowes
Maggie Smith has a unique sense of comedy, based on a somewhat ironic view of real life, making it both funnier and more sad. But perhaps her greatest ability, or at least the one that most intrigues me, is how she can convey deep and powerful emotion without a trace of sentimentality.
Julian Fellowes
Lawyers are always confident before the verdict. It's only after that they share their doubts.
Julian Fellowes
I always loved movies and the cinema we always used to go to see films as a family.
Julian Fellowes
Sometimes the weekend gets hijacked by work, but as my mother would say, this is the right problem.
Julian Fellowes
There are many nations that have perfected a particular room. You know, you have the French drawing-room, the Austrian ball room, the German dining room, and I think the library is a room the English get right.
Julian Fellowes
Nothing is harder to dramatize than happiness.
Julian Fellowes
I think American television changed world television in its reinvention of the series.
Julian Fellowes
If you're supposed to be a 'personality,' then you might as well have a personality.
Julian Fellowes
I can be as contrary as I choose.
