fetch pat throw
Sometimes I think being an actor is like being a dog for a director; it's like they throw a stick, and you want to fetch it and bring it back to them. You want a pat on the head for it.
good
I was a good boy; I was never in trouble for anything.
constantly
When you're constantly involved in domination, what you're really looking for is constant highs.
city felt loved people pittsburgh proud size sports
Pittsburgh felt like the perfect size of a city to me. There's enough to do, but it's not like living in a circus. I also really loved how sports-enthusiastic Pittsburgh people are: how proud of their sports they are.
bad
Really, no-one is bad except for serial killers and dictators.
I think I'd be too scared to direct my first movie and put myself in the center.
I thought I'd be married and a father by 35.

People love boxing, but you've gotta wait two or three years for your favorite boxer to have a fight.

Some of us are better at owning the responsibility of our actions than others.

My whole journey and career has been really interesting, but the one element it never really had was any sense of great momentum.

I tend to take on a lot of things. And then they all just seem to happen at once. Or maybe I'm not good at saying 'No'. But the juggling's fun.
approval festival given local offshore seal
I think, often with Australian films, if an Australian film has been given the seal of approval by an offshore festival or an offshore release, then it does mean a lot to a local audience.
Unfortunately, the Egyptians weren't the greatest artists in the world.
