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.

More quotes by Eric Bana
The thing I love about working with first-time directors is that it's always quite shocking how little difference there is between them and directors who've been directing all their lives.
Eric Bana
I'm not into bikinis or other revealing clothing.
Eric Bana
The movies people don't talk about or remember after six months' time don't really matter.
Eric Bana
I think luck gets you on to the stage. But it has nothing to do with keeping you there.
Eric Bana
If you're lucky enough to be involved in a film that's about something very real and that you hope will continue to hold up in 20 years' time it just gives you more energy and makes it feel all the more worthwhile.
Eric Bana
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
I never really think much about the size of a production because I think as an actor, once you're in it, it's all the same. I never ever pick projects based on their size.
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
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 love working with people who have had television experience because I think there's a real efficiency and methodology that comes from that background.
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
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
It's always been my hope, as an actor, to reveal only what is relevant about myself to the work.
Eric Bana
Without a doubt, rowing is the hardest thing you can attempt to learn in a short period of time.
Eric Bana
Each time you go to the same track you know whether you're improving or whether you're not... it's not open to interpretation. It's measurable - unlike acting.
Eric Bana
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.
Eric Bana
The reason my kids come to the set is so I can actually see them.
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
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
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.
