Leonardo Nam Quote

  • [on acting in Austrailia] I was studying with this lady and I`d go to see these producers and I`d read for them or whatever and they`d all be like, `You`re great... but we don`t have anything for you.` I`d always be like the takeaway kid from the Chinese food store even though I`m Korean. Go figure. That kind of thing still happens here in the movies and stuff but at a much more extreme micro-scale. That`s what Australian film and TV was like. It was before Fox moved over and The Matrix was there so I kind of had to go through my own right of passage. One day she told me, `I`ve booked you an audition in New York.` Next thing I knew, I was stepping off a plane and it just felt right. Leonardo Nam
