Ben Mendelsohn

I did 'Quigley Down Under,' which is quite deliberately placed in Australia, which is a Tom Selleck, Alan Rickman, Laura San Giacomo film from '88, I want to say.

As an outsider in America, you do see the kind of hypocrisy that's rampant there.

In Australia, even the darkest subject matter has a little pinch of humor. A little sweet to make the sour go down.

My first career ambitions involved turning into a boy; I intended to be either a railway guard or a knight errant.

In early 1993, when I was 12, I was separated from my family as the Sierra Leone civil war, which began two years earlier, came into my life.

I love Hindi films.
