I might be one of the most flamboyant characters New Zealand has ever seen, but my intentions are good, and I would like to see New Zealand flourish.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I really want to see New Zealand; it's a beautiful place.
I've never been to New Zealand before. But one of my role models, Xena, the warrior princess, comes from there.
I've had a quiet fascination with New Zealand for most of my life.
I am a New Zealander, but I don't want to swallow New Zealand identity in one gulp.
This is the difficulty about talking about it without sounding big-headed, but you cannot speak of New Zealand now without my involvement in what it has become.
New Zealand is a place where you can get well.
Definitely, I'd love to do more in New Zealand if it was the right time.
I feel very lucky to be able to make movies in New Zealand, and I will always be grateful for the support I have received from so many New Zealanders.
I do think of myself very strongly as a New Zealander, but when I moved out to the States, I was aware that I didn't want to just live in a satellite community of only other New Zealanders.
Trust me: I don't wish I was a New Zealander.
