Quote by Tom Hooper
I feel connected to the Second World War because my father lost hi

I feel connected to the Second World War because my father lost his father in that war. So, through my dad and the effect it had on him of losing his father young, I always felt connected to the war. It goes back years, but it still feels to me as if were completely living in it. – Tom Hooper

I think we all have blocks between us and the best version of ourselves, whether its shyness, insecurity, anxiety, whether its a physical block, and the story of a person overcoming that block to their best self. Its truly inspiring because I think all of us are engaged in that every day. – Tom Hooper
