More quotes by Eric Bana
I fell in love with many women at school who had no idea I existed. I'm a bit of a romantic.
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
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
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 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'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 occasionally go to the gym and I lift free weights, I don't use machines.
Eric Bana
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
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
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
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
If you can jump up onstage and make people laugh, shouldn't you also be able to inhabit a character?
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
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 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
I like the unknown. I like mystery.
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 think you need to be able to see a lot of negative in things in order to extract material, so there's probably something to that. A lot of the people I used to work with were very, very, very unfunny offstage, so that's a pretty common thing.
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
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
