films gets
When I have been exposed to so many films that are so bad, my soul gets crushed. I just feel intoxicated.
minute
If the audience, in minute 50, is thinking about the way a movie is shot, there's a problem. I want it to permeate emotionally.
financed matters past
Yes, I am a Mexican, and I have a past and a culture. But what matters is the film itself, not where it was financed or cast.
prize work worse
On a transcendental level, a film is not going to be better or worse because there's a prize behind it. The work will be what it is, with or without a prize.
damaging defeat few people talk wound
People talk about the pain of defeat, but I think defeat has a lot of value. I think the wound of victory can be even more damaging than defeat. Very few people really know how to win.
fixated
I think there's nothing wrong with being fixated on superheroes when you are 7 years old, but I think there's a disease in not growing up.
