I'm Developing Some Screenplays At The Moment

We Grew Up As Kids Watching Those Movies And We Were Exposed To Themes Of Civil Rights, Unfairness, Bigotry And Fathers Struggling Against The Kind Of Mob Of The Town, So You Remember How You Felt As A Kid Being Taken Seriously, That You Are Part Of The Human Drama.

I Grew Up On Cricket And I Think Australian Kids Are Getting So Americanized.

I'm Developing Some Screenplays At The Moment With My Australian Producer.

Although I'm Not Christian, I Was Raised Christian. I'm An Atheist, With A Slight Buddhist Leaning. I've Got A Very Strong Sense Of Morality - It's Just A Different Morality Than The Loud Voices Of The Christian Morality.... I Can't Tell You How Many Films I've Turned Down Because There Was An Absence Of Morality. And I Don't Mean That From Any Sort Of Judeo-christian-muslim Point Of View. I'm Not Saying They're Wrong And Can't Be Made. But, Fundamentally, I'm Such A Humanist That I Can't Bear To Make Films That Make Us Feel Humanity Is More Dark Than It Is Light.

There`s A Good Sense Of Fun And Lack Of Sarcasm In The Texans, Maybe A Little Earnestness Which Is Kind Of Why I Found It Quite Australian.
