More quotes by Eric Bana
I have a theory that I really want my kids to know - the only coloration that they make between dad being in films and reality is just a lot of people doing a lot of hard work.
Eric Bana
I think if you had to map that out at the beginning and you said, Right, sit down, this is what you're going to be doing, you'd probably freak out. But I'm someone who really enjoys not being himself. So if you consider that, then it all sort of makes sense.
Eric Bana
I never look at the size of the film when I'm looking for a part.
Eric Bana
The movies people don't talk about or remember after six months' time don't really matter.
Eric Bana
I'm always reading and looking around for the next thing.
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.
Eric Bana
I get inhabited by a character and then you mourn it. There's a period of mourning for me, definitely.
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
There wasn't a moment where I got into cars. It wasn't a conscience decision or something that came later, it was there since I was born. I just love it.
Eric Bana
I like the unknown. I like mystery.
Eric Bana
As an actor I've been attracted to the sort of films that I want to go and see. That tends to usually be drama-related.
Eric Bana
I knew a bit but we don't study a lot of British history at school in Australia. We have our own 50-year period to concentrate on.
Eric Bana
I really enjoy working on small films.
Eric Bana
There's a plethora of wonderful documentaries. I made a point of not looking at anyone else's portrayal of Henry because I think it would have been too confusing - so I've got a lot of films to look forward to.
Eric Bana
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
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'm not into bikinis or other revealing clothing.
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 reason my kids come to the set is so I can actually see them.
Eric Bana
I was a fan of the television show as a kid but I wouldn't say that I've followed all the movies or anything like that. But I was a television junkie as a kid.
Eric Bana
