Tom Hooper's quotes
- [on the characterization of George VI in 'The King's Speech'] I didn't want to make a film about the miracle cure.The truth about most disabilities is it's about living with them - there is no miracle.
- There were probably two requirements for doing [Les Miserables]: one was everyone signing up to the idea of singing live, the second was Hugh Jackman existing. Because I think if Hugh Jackman didn't exist, I wouldn't have made this film.
