While I was trying to save money to go to the National Institute of Dramatic Art in Australia I ended up getting all of this experience which meant that by the time I had enough money in the bank to go to school I didn't really need to go to school anymore.

The thing about films is you learn new stuff all the time. You think you can get to a point where you've got it all down. But then another, different situation arises.

My children have never watched any of my films. Charlie knows that daddy makes movies, but he says they are not good enough for him to watch.

Some people have got advice, some people have got horror stories. I like people that look you in the eye with a glow and say "It's gonna be cool."

There's nothing like sitting back and talking to your cows.

I've always found it to be a privilege to make movies. It's a really expensive, creative medium. And people allow me to do it, and there are things that I can do as an actor that I couldn't do in any other walk of life.

Whenever I hear an American say Aussies drive on the 'wrong side of the road,' I just lose it. You ever think about how those people grew up driving on the 'wrong side of the road,' watched a lot of people get hurt on the 'wrong side of the road,' die on the 'wrong side of the road,' while other people cheered from the 'right side of the road'? Australia has a thing called Highway Fights, so it's touchy.
