The mecca of filmmaking in the world just so happens to be in America. It's quite simply a case of us just going where the work is.

I'm the son of an everyman. My father is a teacher. He teaches physics at a boys' school in Sydney.

My trumpeting sounds like a goose farting in the fog.

I am a big fan of vampires. I've always been obsessed with the genre, and the beautiful romanticism and erotic kind of nature of the immortal being, the undead who lives on human blood.
