My father made sure that I had lots of levels of education – from ballroom-dancing to painting, commando training, theatre and magic. – Baz Luhrmann
One of my great all-time loves in cinema, and Ive seen it three times, is Bondarchuks War and Peace. Not a lot of people may have seen that film. It was made during the Soviet era. – Baz Luhrmann
The food in Sydney is an Asian Pacific cuisine. Its eclectic but above all its fresh, inventive and creative and thats what I love about it. – Baz Luhrmann
Ive tried to make Strictly Ballroom impossible to date. It does feel a bit 80s but I consciously made sure there was no technology in the movie that could date it. – Baz Luhrmann
Funny People is my favorite performance of myself to date. Even though its a comedy and there are serious moments, I really felt like Leo felt like a real person. It didnt feel like I was playing myself. Whether its a comedy or drama, I just try to make it as realistic as possible. – Jonah Hill
