Violence and racism are bad. Whenever they occur they are to be condemned and we should not turn a blind eye to them.

I'm a horrible person. And it's just coming out in my work.

I'm one of those strange beasts who really likes a corset.

I live my life parallel with my work, and they are both equally important. I'm always amazed how much people talk about celebrity and fame. I don't understand the attraction.

I feel like I've been marinated in Australian theatre.

I had never done anything with blue screen before, or prosthetics, or anything like that. Lord of the Rings was like stepping into a videogame for me. It was another world completely. But, to be honest, I basically did it so that I could have the ears. I thought they would really work with my bare head.Working with Martin Scorsese was an absolute minute-by-minute education without him ever being grandiose about it.
