Acting

Before Rose and I were much loved and celebrated Australian Actors, we were merely promising young local talents, just like you.

We've rummaged around through our old tapes and compiled a video to show you where it all began for us, and help you to get where you want to go. In it you'll find some of our early screen tests, a few shorts from our NIDA show reel, and a hodge-podge of behind-the-scenes bits 'n pieces.

If there's anything we can leave you with, it's that acting, "though a complex and exhausting craft, is a gift that lies within your soul, and should you be brave enough to release it, the rewards will surely find you."* Stick with it (acting).

What a genius.

The film ends with the 2007 mistrial - previewing tonight at the festival was quite serendipitous timing on the Sydney Film Festival's part considering the timeliness of the trial now.
