In a real fight, there ain't no time and you've got to use your wits. If someone were threatening the life of my child, then I'd be a good fighter. If somebody just wanted to steal my wallet, well, maybe I wouldn't worry about it so much.

I generally find an affinity with a lot of the people I play and I suppose if I didn't feel an affinity for them then they wouldn't be particularly good performances.

Film has a tendency to be limiting in some way and it shouldn't be. It's a form that can be explored and changed.

I packed coffee once when I lived in Australia, and I just remember going around every day with coffee up my nose and in my ears.

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

I think often in film we limit our imaginations a little - well, quite a lot, actually things get quite formulaic.

I don't think I'll ever escape the fact that I don't belong anywhere in particular. I've often dreamed about going back to Nigeria, but that's a very romantic notion. It's a hideous country to go to in reality.
