Some of these things I saw in foreign films - African films, Cuban films - long before I decided to really go on this course as an actor. I started to think about what values I saw in those films that I wanted to bring to my projects.
British comedy - which has been a big inspiration to me for many years - is very different to Australian comedy and different again to American comedy.
I was an open, smiley and gregarious child. I could make friends in 30 seconds wherever I went.
