My grandfather was a very elegant individual. My father also. He was a lawyer and farmer in Cuba. In Miami, he had to go to work wherever he could. But whenever it was time to go out, you saw how they cared for how they looked.

She is Cuba. If you want to love her, you have to be with her, but you can't be with her in her current state. It's the point of view of all exiles - you have to leave the thing you cherish most.

It's important, when going after a goal, to never lose sight of the integrity of the journey.

I wish we didn't have to tell this story.

Becoming a producer enables you to empower yourself, to make the film that you want to make. I have desires to make movies - I have movies I'm developing, and things that I'm interested in.

You have to love the guy that you play, even if you play the villain, you've got to love him.

Movies are very hard to make, to get it all to come together. So many people have their say in what the end product of films are.
