Life goes by really fast, and it seems that there are times when you’re burying a lot of friends and family. And then there are times that feel really precious and everybody is doing okay. This is one of those times.

As far as this business of solitary confinement goes, the most important thing for survival is communication with someone, even if it’s only a wave or a wink, a tap on the wall, or to have a guy put his thumb up. It makes all the difference.

The most impactful dollars that Australia can spend are actually what goes to help the poorest.
I’ve had to accept that – that everyone cannot love me. Because when there’s love, there’s hate. When there’s light, there’s dark.

When I am shooting a film, then everything goes soft focus. My family also complains that I don’t give them time.
Being on a set where the director has lost control is just sickening. No one goes the extra mile, there’s a lot of eye-rolling… it just breeds inertia. If a director is in control, the crew follow their leader. But the second anyone senses the directors are not sure, people just swoop in.
