I'm so used to Australian films not getting a release outside Australia.

I'm always trepidatious and excited about what I do. I wouldn't choose to do something, unless I am really excited about it.

There's nothing like being on a massive-budget film where you don't know anything, and there's a million people, and no one's communicating.

As human beings, of course, we're all compromised and complex and contradictory and if a screenplay can express those contradictions within a character and if there's room for me to express them, that's a part I'd love to play, so much more than a character who is heroic and one-dimensional.

Film sets are constantly amusing because you really are creating something that is so very surreal, and I kind of like that.

I do feel like I'm not entirely an insider.

I think I'm a bit of a dreamer. I don't like the reality of life to impinge much on my life.
