Paul Dawber is an Australian stage, film & television actor and is probably most known for his 1987 stint on Sons and Daughters. He has also appeared on popular Australian police dramas such as Blue Heelers, Stingers and, more recently, City Homicide and Satisfaction. Dawber also appeared on Prisoner, Neighbours and The Flying Doctors. As a charismatic leading actor and leading man, Paul Dawber commands an odd mixture of working-class charm, exuberant street-wise sexuality and aristocratic arrogance.
He has proved himself capable of handling any type of role - from comedy to adventure, from Television Drama to Shakespeare.
Probably no relation to Mork and Mindy actress Pam Dawber.

Born in Liverpool England in 1956. In 1962 his family immigrated to Australia and settled in Melbourne.

The Secret, described as a self-help film, uses a documentary format to present a concept titled "law of attraction". As described in the film, the "Law of Attraction" hypothesis posits that feelings and thoughts can attract events, feelings, and experiences, from the workings of the cosmos to interactions among individuals in their physical, emotional, and professional affairs. The film also suggests that there has been a strong tendency by those in positions of power to keep this central principle hidden from the public.

The film deals with the story of two brothers. Barky (Marty Denniss) is 25 years old and returning to Sydney after two years of living in the northern sugar cane growing areas. He has returned home to attend the funeral of his father (Paul Dawber). The film begins with Barky's arrival at Central station at dawn, seeking the whereabouts of his brother, Wace (Hugh Jackman). We learn from flashbacks that he left home two years ago to escape the clutches of his father’s violent rages. Wace, the older brother, is not too happy about Barky’s prolonged absence, having been left to manage looking after the father in his last years of life. After walking through the streets he finds an old mate of his, Wayne (Joel Edgerton), who assures him of the location of his brother. He succeeds in finding his brother through the help of Wayne and friends, who all end up at a pub where it is revealed that Barky and Wace's mother left the family fifteen years earlier and that Wace hastened his father's death after he was struck down by a stroke. Barky also crosses paths with his ex-girlfriend, Lanny, and manages to rekindle the relationship.
