"I mean, we’ve all had those dreams where, you know, we try to cry out and our voice won’t come." ― Tom Hooper Topic(s): Movies More From Tom Hooper "I think English film is very embarrassed by patriotism, generally." "American cinema tends to express a patriotic relationship to national identity on a regular basis." "I think we all have blocks between us and the best version of ourselves, whether it’s shyness, insecurity, anxiety, whether it’s a physical block, and the story of a person overcoming that block to their best self. It’s truly inspiring because I think all of us are engaged in that every day."

I wanted to be a comedian on Stage 19, yukking it up."― Jenny McCarthy "I’ve kind of come to the conclusion that what passes for realism in movies has nothing to do with reality and that my stuff is more realistic than that."― Charlie Kaufman
