Teenagers who've overcome a troubled life thanks to Father Chris Riley, the founder and CEO of Youth Off The Streets, got to meet a Hollywood star last night.

But Aussie actor Eric Bana says HE's the one who's been inspired.

It is the second year he has attended the organisation's annual dinner, which he says tops any Hollywood awards night or movie premier.

'One of the best nights I had last year was coming here and listening to some of these stories,' he says.

'I think in society we get inspired by things like sport, but a night like tonight.. you just can't touch it.'

Over one hundred Australians have been helped by the program, which has been running for six years.

Youth Off The Streets is a charity organisation that provides essential services such as crisis accommodation for homeless youth, drug and alcohol rehabilitation and education to ensure disadvantaged and disengaged young people are given the opportunity to turn their life around.

People.com article by Stephen M. Silverman

Eric Bana may not be known for comic roles, but that's only onscreen. Married to the former Rebecca Gleeson since 1997 and the father of two kids – Klaus, 10, and Sophie, 7 – the Australian star of The Time Traveler's Wife suggests there's really one ingredient for keeping relationships running smoothly: good, old-fashioned belly laughs.

"My wife and I really, really like each other as well as love each other," Bana, 41, tells Women's Health for its September issue, now on sale. "We definitely laugh together every day. And I don't mean chuckle – I can make her really laugh."

Not that he's suggesting a guy go solo in the guffaw department. "A girl's got to be fun," he insists. "It's the one bit of advice I always give to friends of mine who are thinking of getting married."

On the serious matter of choosing a partner, "I think love can come fairly easily and grow – but really liking the core essence of someone is a much harder thing to bottle. If you have both, you're in pretty good shape," he says, while also noting that women "are so much better wired than men to deal with multiple things at once. They're better at dealing with background noise and multitasking."

For instance? "If I'm writing something down while my wife wants to give me instructions for something else, I have to put my hand up and say, 'Let me finish my one task and then I will take the next.' It's weird."

27th-Aug-2009 03:52 am - "FUN" MATCHMAKER ERIC BANA
Eric Bana says the key to a happy marriage is to tie the knot with someone you ''really like'' and can make you laugh.

Eric Bana only lets his friends marry "fun" women."

The 'Time Traveler's Wife' star, who wed publicist Rebecca Gleeson in 1997, believes laughter is the key to a successful marriage.

He said: "A girl's got to be fun. It's the one bit of advice I always give to friends of mine who are thinking of getting married.

"I think love can come fairly easily and grow - but really liking the core essence of someone is a much harder thing to bottle. If you have both, you're in pretty good shape. My wife and I really, really like each other as well as love each other. We definitely laugh together every day. And I don't mean chuckle - I can make her really laugh."

Eric - who has two children with Rebecca, 10-year-old Klaus and Sophia, seven - also admits he is amazed by his wife's ability to do more than one thing at a time.

The 41-year-old hunk explained to Women's Health magazine: "Women are so much better wired than men to deal with multiple things at once. They're better at dealing with background noise and multitasking. If I'm writing something down while my wife wants to give me instructions for something else, I have to put my hand up and say, 'Let me finish my one task and then I will take the next.' It's weird."

Style icon Eric Bana looks spiffy in a suit on the September 2009 cover of Men’s Health. Here’s what the 41-year-old Aussie actor shared:

On driving (and crashing) race cars: “It’s something you look back on and realize how lucky you were. But I’ve crashed before and I’ve chased since. I guess what makes this one significant is the fact that I really convinced myself I would never crash because I was driving that car (1974 Ford Falcon XB Coupe). If it were any other race car, I wouldn’t have been bothered at all.”

. .

On loving the Big Apple: “I loved New York, even back then (1980s graffiti-scarred, pre-Giuliani New York). It was such an overwhelming animal. I loved the energy and attitude of the place. It’s great for being productive and creative.”

On the anonymity he finds in Melbourne: “I embrace the two different lives. There’s not meeting in the middle. There’s not island between the two that allows them to coexist… Australians are bred to be antiestablishment. We’re wary of authority.”

ERIC BANA, AUSTRALIAN FUNNYMAN (REALLY!) AND HOLLYWOOD STAR, HAS A FONDNESS FOR ICONIC AMERICA, INCLUDING THE CLASSIC NAVY SUIT

Men's Health article by: Sandra Nygaard; Photograph by: Chris Colls

Eric Bana loves cars and loves America...

...and he was in love with the idea of a cross-country adventure when he arrived here 20 years ago, a naive Australian. His plan: Drive across the land like Kerouac, in a '79 Mustang, and try his luck at stand-up comedy.

Six months and thousands of miles later, the dream was pretty well battered. He'd endured lonely nights sleeping in the car, wrong turns through crack neighborhoods, and a middle-of-the-night escape from Nashville.

Still, one gritty city charmed him.

"I loved New York, even back then," says the 41-year-old actor. "It was such an overwhelming animal. I loved the energy and attitude of the place." This was the graffiti-scarred, pre-Giuliani New York, with Times Square peep shows and mumbling crazies on the sidewalks. And this was the pre-Hollywood Bana, before he traded in a successful Australian comedy career for roles in high-profile movies like Troy, Munich, and Star Trek, before making people laugh in Funny People and breaking hearts in The Time Traveler's Wife.

In America, Bana finds the energy and the positivity infectious. "It's great for being productive and creative," he says.

Back in Melbourne, he can be the anonymous guy next door, riding his bike or dropping off his two kids at school without TMZ cameras in pursuit. "I embrace the two completely different lives," he says. "There's no meeting the middle. There's no island between the two that allows them to coexist." Click here for the rest of the article. )
