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

I think any role you need to play not so much transforms but I like to think of it as understanding the psychology of another character.

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.

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

Across the board, Australian films need to have a lot more money spent on selling them.

A lot of people have a fear of Shakespeare. Even actors do. People are like, "Oh, I won't go and see Shakespeare because the language is so hard," but it is. When you read it on the page, you go, "What?! What does that mean?!" If you go to a Shakespeare play and you've never been, you sit there and go, "I'm an idiot! I don't get it!"

It's a real pleasure to go to work when you're in the most extraordinary surroundings, and working with people who are young and interested and creatively keen.
