Anne Hathaway’s “Les Miserables” Director Did Not Want Her To Lose So Much Weight
Anne Hathaway dropped 25 pounds for her role in “Les Miserables,” and her director Tom Hooper wasn’t too happy about it. Anne explained:
I see the sort of work that people like Meryl Streep and Cate Blanchett and Kate Winslet can do, and I want to do that level of work so badly. But I don’t believe I’m as gifted as them. So the only thing I can control is how hard I work at it — how much do I commit to it? How far will I take it?… If I have an extra glass of wine the night before I shoot a scene. I don’t feel good about myself because of that. If I see it on-screen, the guilt is immediate. I feel like maybe I’ve let the scene down…Tom didn’t like what I was doing, but he understood why I was doing it. No one liked what I was doing. By the end, people were hugging me and they would get emotional because I felt so frail.
