10) a) Julian's first wife, Sarah Sands, is a journalist

11) d) Latvian - Julian plays Sera's Latvian pimp

12) b) Kenya - the film is set on a game preserve in the Masai Mara

13) d) a photographer (again!) - Julian's character plays a pivotal role in the film when the group of journalists tries to counterfeit a passport for their Cambodian friend who is otherwise in danger of being sent to a "re-education camp". Without a good photograph, the plan would certainly fail.

14) a) a car - Julian did a commercial for the Honda sports-utility vehicle, the CR-V.

15) a) a screenwriter - Julian's character is working on a film involving young Italian prostitutes, but he's constantly distracted by his wife's overt affair

16) b) "Beauty!" - George yells this as he stands precariously in a tree. (He also says, among some other things: love and joy.) His father explains to the surprised picnic companions that "He's saying his creed."

17) b) televisions - Julian's character says "I like to take things apart, see how they work... watches, phonographs, people..." Listen to the audio clip.

18) d) Chicago Hope - Julian played "Researcher," an anthropologist, on a Dec. 1996 episode of the CBS series

19) c) painting - McGillis' character defies her husband by devoting herself to her painting, even missing out on the traditional visiting days that he finds so important to his social status

20) a) Julian, of course! While the studio picked Tom Cruise for the role, Rice was vehement in her objections, wanting Julian for the role. She now says that Leonardo DiCaprio is her new choice for future films. Rutger Hauer is said to be the person she based the Marius character on, but as we all age, Julian is considered a top contender for that role, now.

How did you do?

I got 19-20 right.

Wow! Congratulations! You're a certified Julian-ologist!

I got 15-18 right.

Super! With a little time (and a little careful browsing of the site), you might get a perfect score next time! That was great!

I got 10-14 right.

You're on your way! If you had trouble with the film-oriented questions, you might want to head to your video store and rent a few of Julian's movies to brush up.

I got 5-9 right.

You could use a little bit of work! Check out all of the information I've posted on the site, and be sure to hit the video store to rent some of those films you might have missed.

I got 4 or less right.

Oops! You must have visited here just because you thought Julian was gorgeous! ;) Well, he is, and I don't blame you. But he's an accomplished actor with dozens of films under his belt. The site's fun to browse (and has lots of pictures!), and a lot of his films are equally fun to watch. Try the quiz again when you've had some time to get to know him and his work, and I'm sure you'll improve!

We'll have a brand new quiz next month, so if you want to see if you can improve your score, be sure to try again! And you Julian-ologists need to make sure you can still legitimately claim that title with a whole new set of questions. (I'll be spending the next few weeks thinking up some doosies!)
