Billy T's great comedy acting
Billy T played such a good maori who thought he was mexican. Very convincing. Perhaps it was fortuitous casting - reflecting the present day casting of Maori's as mexican etc in hollywood movies. How many times does Cliff Curtis, another great Kiwi actor, get cast as Mexican or similar. But it seems that Billy did it first. He is quite funny as he runs from the taniwha. particularly when the burning building is floating down the river and he thinks it is really a taniwha. It was a sad loss to New Zealand when Billy T died.
