You learn stuff from every character you play about the human condition that can be quite enlightening.

I know that Philadelphians hate New York actors passing off New York accents as Philadelphian when they are quite different.

I have no problem with my age. I've been acting for 50 years in Australia and everyone knows my age because I started at 15. So there was never any point in lying about it.

I believe in sex on a first date. Otherwise, how do you know if a second date is worth the effort?

I guess just a lively imagination is the best effort an actor can have.

I haven't really had a major role in film for about 12 years. But I never stopped working in the theater. I do stuff back to back.

I love gay Mardi Gras in Sydney, which is a big parade, a big march that thousands and thousands of people participate in. And there's one little group... well it's not little, it's got hundreds of people marching, and they're all very sweet, middle-aged and elderly people who are the parents of gay children who are out and proud.
