I don't like to come at my character from some really technical place.
Eric Bana
Image
When I go on the plane to fly home, I'm literally capable of forgetting what I do for a job. That also comes about because I choose to take massive breaks between projects, and because I choose to do this ridiculous thing of keeping home, home.
Eric Bana
Image
When I shoot I'll take my family with me - one movie a year and then the rest of the time at home.
Eric Bana
Image
Without a doubt, rowing is the hardest thing you can attempt to learn in a short period of time.
Eric Bana
Image
I don't consciously seek out Australian projects. I put them on the same table as all the other scripts and I wouldn't ever do a film just because it's been shot at home.
Eric Bana
Image
I really enjoy working on small films.
Eric Bana
Image
I think luck gets you on to the stage. But it has nothing to do with keeping you there.

Image
I used to lift very heavy weights in my mid-twenties - I used to bench press over 300lb. The most I ever lifted was 330lb I couldn't do that today, no way.

Image
I would never say never to returning to comedy.
Eric Bana
Image
If you can jump up onstage and make people laugh, shouldn't you also be able to inhabit a character?
Eric Bana
Image
The notion of people commenting on you, the notion of people saying things about you, people liking or disliking you and getting into your business, has become more of a reality for the general public over the last years, as people have dipped further into Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and social media.
Eric Bana
Image
I'd say I'm the opposite of someone that has the urge to stand in front of strangers and make them laugh, but the idea of getting up and telling a story and people finding it amusing always appealed to me.
Eric Bana
Image
My background was producing and writing and performing in television when I started out, and I really missed that, that whole creative process that comes from sort of 'me' storytelling.
Eric Bana
Image
I look my best when I take my helmet off after a long motorcycle ride. I have a glow and a bit of helmet hair.
Eric Bana
Image
It's always bitterly disappointing to people to see how normally one can live.
Eric Bana
Image
I usually befriend the camera department very early on in the film and drive them nuts. I'm constantly bombarding them with questions and going through the stills photography. A film set is a great place for me and I love it.
Eric Bana
Image
The longer you have something, the stronger the bond. That's true with people as well as things.
Eric Bana
Image
I've had frustrated storytelling juices that have been lying dormant for a long time, and I guess the documentary was a way of me telling a story that I felt most qualified to tell. And I loved it, and I'd love to do something else someday, probably more narrative-based. But I'm in no rush.
Eric Bana
Image
Film sets are great fun. Film people are great people to hang around with. I don't want to run off and be distracted by other things.
Eric Bana
Image
I'll give you a list of a hundred ways that I'm more likely to be injured than belting around a race track with people who know what they're doing. It's not a place where I feel I'm in unnecessary danger.
