I support all Australian films.

There are a thousand weird untold stories in the Australian film industry, this has been one of them.

All the jokes in my films, the comedy, they're not me, I just try to hold a big mirror up to us.

It's because we are so flooded with American culture that we're startled when we see ourselves up there on the screen.

It was always easy for me. I was born very rich and lucky.

Now both my films have been number one at the Australian box office and it took about two years just to get the finance for this film, so if it's hard for me then God help everyone else.

It's an infinite creative universe to explore so why chase conservative options?
