Jessica Brown Findlay Quotes

I am a hopeless romantic Picture Quote #1

You don’t automatically assume everyone will fall for a period drama Picture Quote #1

I’ve got four piercings in my left, so we’ve dubbed my right one the ‘period drama ear.’ I have to be filmed from that side when I do emotional close-ups in ‘Downton.’ Picture Quote #1

I trained as a ballet dancer and fell in love with Rudolf Nureyev; I thought him the most beautiful creature. My mum had to break it to me that not only was he gay, but he was dead Picture Quote #1

I trained as a ballet dancer - well, I started when I was two and a half, and was serious about it from when I was eight until I was 18 Picture Quote #1

We filmed ‘Labyrinth’ in South Africa for two and a half months and it was just the most unbelievable experience. Lots of sword fighting, mud in hair and lots of weeping! It’s very different from ‘Downton’ because I was going to work and having mud put in my hair - it’s the other extreme of the look! Picture Quote #1

The thing I adore about acting is that it’s not me: you get to experience all these emotions, but essentially it’s not you Picture Quote #1

Sometimes when a scene is written or directed to be shouted or played incredibly angrily, I always think it’s way more terrifying when someone is fuming and talks in a very calm way. I always want people to shout at me if they’re angry - it freaks me out that whole thing of, ‘I’m not angry I’m just disappointed.’ Picture Quote #1

I filmed ‘Albatross’ before I got ‘Downton.’ It’s a coming-of-age movie about this girl who leaps into this family’s life, like a whirlwind. She’s ballsy and brash and wonderful, it was such an amazing character to play Picture Quote #1

I do so many things. Like when I was younger, if I drove past a house that I didn’t want to live in, I’d hold my breath. Driving around somewhere like Slough I’d go blue in the face Picture Quote #1

I absolutely adore Alessandra Rich, I think her dresses are stunning and she really knows how to cut and dress the female shape. Her stuff is really beautiful, stylish and a little bit quirky. I love it all! Picture Quote #1

I’m hungry for a cold and mean character. I’d love it if someone thought I could play gritty. I want to play a baddie - someone really scary Picture Quote #1

I’ve read my grandmother’s memoirs and she served as a nurse during World War II. What they had to do was incredible Picture Quote #1

Ever since I was young, I’ve read Austen and the Brontes. My friends laugh, but those books are always so tragic and wonderful - those stories, they’re just incredible Picture Quote #1

I just really think every job I do, I get this gypsy attitude to money Picture Quote #1

Unfortunately I had an ankle problem and underwent three operations Picture Quote #1

I’ve been told I make a very good brew Picture Quote #1

I don’t know if I’m so righteous Picture Quote #1

At 17, we all think we know what we’re doing Picture Quote #1

Everything you listen to when you are 17 should be embarrassing, otherwise you are way too cool Picture Quote #1

I like to accessorise shirts with a little ribbon tied round my collar or a country style ascot. I’ve also sewed little hearts on some of my sleeves which I’ve done for years because I always wear my heart on my sleeve so if you see a little embroidered heart on my clothes, that’s why! Picture Quote #1

Girls in scripts are often pretty but brainless, or geeky and no one likes them, so it’s great to find richer roles. Chalk and cheese aspects of people are very interesting to play Picture Quote #1

There’s a reason hobble skirts are called hobble skirts. You literally can’t move very far in them Picture Quote #1

Before I go on stage, I knock three times. Three is my lucky number; I once went into an audition and was number 333 and got the best part ever Picture Quote #1

And it’s as you get older that you realize that the things that make you strange are the things that make you who you are. And that’s a lovely place to get to Picture Quote #1

The thing I adore about acting is that it’s not me: you get to experience all these emotions, but essentially it’s not you Picture Quote #1

You never think you’re as old as you’re ever going to get Picture Quote #1
