Tom HiddlestonNever stop. Never stop fighting. Never stop dreaming. And donโt be afraid of wearing your heart on your sleeve - in declaring the films that you love, the films that you want to make, the life that youโve had, and the lives you can help reflect in cinema.

So if youโve got something to say, say it from the rooftops.
