The only problem I have with American money is that it's all kind of the same color, so I'm always having to look. Whereas with Australian money, you have purple, blue, yellow... We keep it nice and simple.

I was lucky - the first eight productions I auditioned for, I got cast.
giving people persons
I'm a very private person. I find it very daunting to have to give private parts of myself away to people, you know?
interesting people want
Often, people who want to make interesting films simply don't have the money to do it.
crazy way looks
What we do to ourselves to look a certain way is crazy.
