I just can't talk about things before I do them, because just for me... I give energy away before I've put energy into the job.

There's many more films being made in America than there are in Australia. You make four hundred and fifty films a year, we make twenty-five.

I'm constantly trying to be as original as I can.

I never really enjoyed the fame stuff.

If I'm exhausted, physically and particularly emotionally, I can't tell what's good and I can't tell what's bad and I'm useless.

I'm never there enough to really keep up with what's going on in the Australian film industry. I just try and be part of it as much as I can.

I've been asked to do action-oriented movies in the past and they just haven't been right for me.
