Oscar-nominated screenwriter Richard Curtis: Success isn't as life-changing as you expect

Speaking to CNBC's Tania Bryer at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Curtis — the creative force behind movies including "Love Actually," "Notting Hill" and "Four Weddings and a Funeral," said success "doesn't really change your life as much as you would expect."

Curtis acknowledged he was "utterly lucky" to have earned a vast amount of money from his movies, which had ultimately allowed him to work on his philanthropic endeavors, including global fundraising initiatives Comic Relief and Red Nose Day. "I used to be the most ill-disciplined writer, I would get up at one, watch some television, have some tea, make some phone calls, have dinner and then think 'oh I should probably start now,'" he said. "But since I've had a family I actually do try and go to a quiet place and write a lot — this is my secret."
