Without an ounce of hyperbole, I am telling you that Tom Hooper is one of the very worst directors to ever attain "professional" status. This is a nightmarish visual experience. The wanton violations of the 180-degree rule. The bizarre compositions in which characters are pointlessly consigned the extreme right or left of the frame with acres of dead space next to them.
