Actor Bryan Brown talks about working with Heath Ledger on Two Hands (1999) when Ledger was 20 years old and just starting out. Brown tells the anecdote of talking with writer Thomas Keneally after a screening of Two Hands. Keneally said to Brown 'That young bloke, he's going to be a star'.
This interview was recorded in 2014 as part of the NFSA's Heath Ledger Young Artists Oral History Project, which aimed to record the thoughts and aspirations of audiovisual artists at the start of their careers.
