Christian Kane - evil lawyer Lindsey McDonald What's been your favourite film role?

The most stimulating film I've ever done is a film is a role where I only have one line, [called] Second Hand Lions. I got to play Robbie Duvall.

You come to Los Angeles to act, [and] you have five icons that you would love to do a film with. I knocked two of them out with this movie - Robert Duvall and Michael Caine.

I played a younger Robbie Duvall, and did all my own stunts, I got stitched up three times, and it was so much fun, and I only have one line in the movie. It's all sword fighting and stuff like that. But I get to play Robert Duvall. Nobody gets to do that!

[It was] probably the most defining moment in my life, because I've been a fan of his for so long. They said,"Listen, do you want to come on set and follow him around and get him mannerisms?" and I said, "Oh yeah," but at the same time I didn't need to do it. Because I've followed him for so long that I had it already, I just picked it up. So that was probably my favourite role to date.
