In 1905 Albert discovered Relativity, in 1906 he invented Rock and Roll.

All the jokes in my films, the comedy, they're not me, I just try to hold a big mirror up to us.
It's because we are so flooded with American culture that we're startled when we see ourselves up there on the screen.
The American formula things are out there but they don't have any stories to tell - we have all the stories to tell - but they're all formula.
While the eyes of the world will be on us let's show everyone that we have a great sense of humour.
I don't know what it means to be out there against the Olympics.
I kind of worry about that a little bit - we lost our film culture for 30 years because the Americans came in and bought up all the cinema chains and wouldn't show any Australian films.
In a kind of a way there's a bit of that happening now so we have to be careful to preserve our culture.
Now both my films have been number one at the Australian box office and it took about two years just to get the finance for this film, so if it's hard for me then God help everyone else.
I just wanted to do this all Australian film and we didn't want to give creative control to overseas 'cause whoever comes on my sets, whether you're sweeping the floor or an actor, it doesn't matter who comes up with the ideas, it's a collaboration.
