	Toni Collette Biography (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Toni Collette was born on the 1st of November, 1972, in western Sydney, Australia.
		Toni would have to lose far more than the extra 40 pounds to appear in more glamorous roles, as in Velvet Goldmine, and her fluctuating weight seriously distorted her self-image, leading her to suffer from panic attacks and bulimia throughout her early twenties.
		Toni moved on to The Boys, a really gritty drama where a psycho is released from jail into Sydney's western suburbs, meets up with his equally rough brothers, the three having no real power but rocketing levels of testosterone.

		"Toni's got that Aussie good nature, but she's also a hot babe," says Diaz, who was impressed by Collette's go-for-broke approach to the role that required her to gain 30 pounds.
		Rolling her eyes, Collette complains that the only help she received afterward from the movie studio to take off the weight was a rented elliptical trainer.
		When not acting, Collette leads a relatively quiet life in Sydney, where she and her husband of nearly three years, musician Dave Galafassi, are collaborating on an album of "moody pop rock" songs Collette wrote; they've started a band enigmatically called Toni Collette and the Finish.

		According to Brooks, Collette was an "early choice" of the three-woman creative team consisting of herself, screenwriter Allison Tilson, and producer Sue Maslin.
		It was a four-hour drive from Collette's hotel to the location, and she was treated to many a sunrise.
		This is the antithesis of Collette herself, a longtime vegetarian who turned vegan to tone her physique for a role that demanded heavy lifting and a love scene.

		Toni Collette continues to shine in "Japanese Story," but it's a rather arid tale of a Japanese man and an Australian woman stranded in the outback.
		Likewise Collette was notable in "The Hours" (a film I didn't much care for either; she played the trussed-up Kitty Barlowe) and simply wonderful in "About a Boy" (one of my ten best films of 2002).
		Collette's appropriately named Sandy is "volunteered" by her boss (Bill Baird) into driving prospective client Tachibana Hiromitsu (Gotaro Tsunashima) around in the outback in a rented Toyota 4-Runner.

		This is the first legit trip down the aisle for Collette, 30, whose past leading men included her Velvet Goldmine costar Jonathan Rhys-Meyers.

		But the main reason to see this mood piece is Toni Collette, who creates a vivid character, by turns rowdy and contemplative, a woman who sees life as a lark and discovers that there may be something more to it.
		Toni Collette is absolutely natural and unvarnished as a brash and somewhat crude young woman who makes it quite clear she doesn't relish a trip in the desert with this Japanese bloke, whoever he is and however important he might be to her firm.
		One must understand the Japanese mentality to truly grasp the meaning of what Sandy did and why, for she was able to figure out the Japanese way and how important it was to Hiromitsu's wife, who would have to deal with a lot of unanswered questions in her heart for the rest of her life.

		Toni Collette, the daughter of a truck driver and a homemaker, fell in love with acting as a teenager growing up in the suburbs of Sydney.
		Collette's turn as Cameron Diaz's dowdy sister in Fox's "In Her Shoes," director Curtis Hanson's adaptation of Jennifer Weiner's popular chick-lit novel, has some suggesting that she's primed for awards-season attention despite the film's lackluster boxoffice performance.
		Collette says she enjoyed an instant rapport with her glamorous co-star Diaz.

		HBO and the BBC have gone to lengths to say the miniseries, starring Toni Collette and Tim Roth, will go "beyond" the tragedy to focus on its aftermath - but some locals think it's too soon.
		It stars Gregg Kinnear, Toni Collette, Alan Arkin, Steve Carell, Abigail Breslin and Paul Dano and screens at the Wadsworth Theatre.

		Although Collette admitted that she personally tends to keep a lot of her emotions inside, she found it easy to give herself over to Hanson's methods of exploring the characters' connections and backgrounds during the rehearsal process.
		While Collette doesn't have any sisters -- she has two brothers -- she said she had no trouble relating to the material or establishing a sisterly bond with Diaz, she said.
		Unlike the extroverted, vivacious Diaz, Collette was mostly still during her interview, sitting with her hands in her lap, unless she needed them to illustrate a point.

		One gets the feeling over and over again that she is capable of far more than any casting director or studio executive has ever been able to imagine.
		Despite all this frustration from the Fan-Of-Collette perspective, there is nothing in her actual performances that suggests any bitterness at her place in the industry.
		In bit roles like the ones she had in 8 1/2 Women (2000) and The Hours (2002) she proves the hoary adage 'there are no small parts, only small actors.' Toni Collette is no small actor.

		The versatile and talented Oscar-nominated hypocrite also declared that “working in Australia on films that speak directly to my heart and represent who we intrinsically are has allowed me to perform on an international stage and represent our rich country” – while sounding exactly like a citizen of “fear-based, paranoid America”, to use Collette’s description.

		She may despise the accent, the fear and the paranoia, but Toni Collette is happy to earn American money.
