Why Australia is Important! (cont'd)

KOALA MEMES!









Australian Film Stars

I like to joke here at Australia Day Fun Facts but I would like to be serious for a moment and mention that a lot of the Aussie actors I poke fun at are really quite talented and do a great job of bringing entertainment into our homes and up on the big screen. I'd like to pick out a few actors/actresses that I have enjoyed over the years.

ISLA FISHER:



ISLA FISHER FROM THAT OTHER MOVIE:



YOUNG-TO-EARLY-MIDDLE-AGED NICOLE KIDMAN:


NEWCOMER... SARAH SNOOK:


EMILY BROWNING (Except when she's blonde):


ISLA FISHER AGAIN:


and then also: Guy Pearce, Geoffrey Rush, Eric Bana and Ben Mendelsohn....  TRULY TALENTED!

3) Norman Lindsay - Mostly just because of this sculpture but also for other stuff I guess.
