Quotes
- "I couldn't be a cameraman or a designer or an actor - I have to be a director because I learned how to do that from my dad. Generally, I've never known quite how to fit in in civilian life, but on set, making a film, I know exactly where to go, how to behave and how I fit."IMDb: Joe Wright Biography
