More quotes by Eric Bana
I get inhabited by a character and then you mourn it. There's a period of mourning for me, definitely.
Eric Bana
A girl's got to be fun. It's the one bit of advice I always give to friends of mine who are thinking of getting married.
Eric Bana
I think luck gets you on to the stage. But it has nothing to do with keeping you there.
Eric Bana
When I was a kid, I would do stupid things on my bike. I'd jump any ramp, I'd jump over people, I'd jump over things - always crashing, never hurting myself badly but always wanting to take physical risks.
Eric Bana
I think the beauty of working with young people is they remind you of the spirit of acting and it's just a big play.
Eric Bana
I enjoy just being cocooned in production and it's completely different to your other life that you have. I enjoy that. I enjoy being on the set and hanging out and talking to whoever we're working with and just being in the moment.
Eric Bana
I've always described parts as tattoos. For actors our tattoos are in the form of films.
Eric Bana
I wanted to be a mechanic. When I was 14 I wanted to quit school and go work on my car. But my dad said Son, you shouldn't do that. You should stay in school until your education is finished, and when you're done, don't make your hobby your job.
Eric Bana
It's always been my hope, as an actor, to reveal only what is relevant about myself to the work.
Eric Bana
Definitely the script because you want to be part of an interesting story, you want your character to be a challenge, then comes the director. But essentially it's the script first and whether it's a character that you think you can do.
Eric Bana
I occasionally go to the gym and I lift free weights, I don't use machines.
Eric Bana
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
I've never been someone that's had a five-year plan, or a three-year plan. That just seems to lead to a lot of disappointment, and doesn't give you the chance to be flexible.
Eric Bana
It really depends on the director. I think quite often, it's not what you expect. The most serious film can be the most fun. The one that's supposed to be fun can be the most serious. I don't think there are any hard-and-fast rules. I just think it really depends on your director and what the general vibe is.
Eric Bana
The more I love the character, the harder it is to get it wrong. I have to get to a point that I can speak for them.
Eric Bana
If you can jump up onstage and make people laugh, shouldn't you also be able to inhabit a character?
Eric Bana
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
I do believe in reading signs if they're really obvious to you. Things happen. Someone will say something to you today in the morning and then later on that day someone will mention the same thing and then the next day someone will mention it again. There's a reason why three people have said something within twenty four hours.
Eric Bana
Without a doubt, rowing is the hardest thing you can attempt to learn in a short period of time.
Eric Bana
I think there are times when you walk onto a set you can potentially be either intimidated or distracted by what's going on around you.
