I've been acting since I was a kid, so I just feel confident in the fact that I can do it to some degree. I've never thought I was amazing; I've just thought, 'I know this, I can do it.

When you act, you really have to give all of yourself, and if you're doing that purely for money, it's not healthy.

Being from Australia, I've never even touched a gun. It's so not a part of our culture.

I'd rather make an interesting film that gets people talking, that maybe some people hate, than make the kind of 'entertaining' film that everyone feels ambivalent about.

Often, people who want to make interesting films simply don't have the money to do it.

It is frustrating when in an interview people say: 'Give us your make-up tips' and 'How do you stay skinny?' I think: 'Do you ask a guy that?

For me, I see filmmaking as art.
