Any relative of Sir Les Paterson? Same first name......
I'll skip it with Rebel Wilson.... fat is NOT the new thin, and boorish is not the new polite ...
She was just terrible, nothing to do with her weight, looks.
She can't act for schit and can only do her Aussie bogan character.
From the story it's suggested her charachter ended up under a pile of concrete above the North Bondi fishing club.
The Mrs and I have been watching a series called Big little lies which is an adaptation of a book by an Aussie author set around the Northern Beaches Sydney.
All I can say is thankfark it was picked up by an American producer as it's off the hook good acting. Our Nicole Kidman is great in it, thanks to a great script and directing.
Hmm - yes - been noticing for many years that often humdrum 'actors' who've 'made a name' in some silly show are then regarded as 'stars' here for eternity... it's such a shame...
Real acting is at a premium here in Oz, and many of the long-established 'stars' are pretty shallow in their repertoire... I know the pool is much shallower than in the US or UK, but still - and on top of that, some tight scripting would go a long way instead of the pap that often comes out.
How do you compare with, say, a Helen Mirren and Alan Rickman in the Eye In The Sky script? We just don't have that here.. sorry 'bout that.
Oh, Colin Friels is pretty good - he's in a show now at the theatre... (I think).. I don't keep up with my performing arts investments... just know the product is good ...
