Guess what other Australian actors weren't born in Australia?
Nicole Kidman, born in Hawaii, moved to Washington D.C., then to Australia when she was about three. Naomi Watts, born in England, raised in Australia. Russell Crowe, born in New Zealand, lived in Australia since he was a small child. Guy Pearce, born in England (nine years and 364 days after me, BTW), moved to Australia when he was three. Isla Fisher was born in Oman.
Seems like Heath is one of the few big Australian stars who was actually born in Australia.
Well, him and Cate Blanchett, Hugh Jackman, Toni Collette, Geoffrey Rush, Abbie Cornish and I'm sure a few others.

Kidman and Crowe, you could have knocked me over with a feather. I wouldn't like to play trivial pursuits with you!!!!
Not that there is anything trivial about all those facts. I wish I was back in England, and could go down to the pub tonight, to dazzle and amaze with all my new found knowldege.
Actually I would love to go to a proper English country pub again.I hope our Visa renews soon so We can leave the States for a U.K visit and get back in again.We are landlocked at the moment, which is fine.But of course sods law says, you never want something until you can't have it.I don,t particularly miss England, but it annoys me that I cannot even go for a visit at the moment,of course if I could, I probably wouldn't want to.

You haven't seen it before? Well, if you're on the fence, here's my 2 cents:
I saw it in the theater, long before I became a Heathen, and I was so bored I came about as close to walking out of a movie as I ever do (I've only walked out of two movies in my life, both also out of boredom). And my younger son kept threatening to leave that screen in the multiplex and go see something else in a different one -- this was back when he wasn't nearly old enough to sit in a theater alone.
But keep in mind that I was so pre-Heathen back then that, of the two Bros. Grimm, I preferred Matt Damon! (Sorry *dons hardhat* I know that's a Heathen form of sacrilege.)

Oh, you'd probably be safe with me in Trivial Pursuit -- unless I was near a computer. :laugh:
I vaguely remembered that Crowe wasn't born in Australia, but I wasn't expecting New Zealand. Still, I thought I remembered someone else besides Mel Gibson being born in the U.S. So I just did a quick google/imdb search.
