FilmInk, Dusty Drover On The November Cover

October 16th, 2008

The November issue of Australian magazine, FilmInk, features a four pages spread with our very own Drover, Hugh Jackman, on the cover.

“[Baz] is really something else. …He pushes you, and give syou every opportunity in terms of research. He has such complete belief in what he’s doing, So does Catherine Martin; I can’t really see Baz without Catherine – they’re so intertwined. You’d jump off the cliff if they asked you! They’re so committed and it really bings out the best in everyone around them.”

And what of the character Hugh will be playing? “There are many similarities between a cowby in a western and a drover in Australia – there’s a toughness there, and they both say very little, even though everything is going on inside -but there’s a distinctly different kind of larrikinism to the Australian version of the cowboy. We tried to get a little of that in there too”

Pick up the issue at news stands now, or view and read the interview, with some extra plot insight, via the scan in our extensive gallery.
