We need to know the facts, in order to tell the politicians, "Excuse me, I don't want you to use my money on building a wall that is not going to solve any problems. We have to go this direction instead."
Demian BichirI have tried to defend what is most precious to our American society, a society that is now at war against the forces of racial intolerance.A big part of me making the decision was how important the play is for the times that we live in. This is a classic. It's a masterpiece of American playwriting. It's about discrimination and it's about we Mexicans being a target for so many years.
Demian BichirI hope people can stop believing everything politicians say about Mexico and the United States, and the problems that we share.
Demian BichirIโm an actor whoโs accustomed to bringing a lot of stuff to the table, and you have to be ready because some of them will be accepted and some of them will be rejected. Then you need a generous, free, fearless, loving director like Tarantino to allow you to take those risks.
Demian BichirA lot of people love Tarantinoโs films because theyโre spectacular, theyโre beautiful, theyโre wonderful. He hires the best group of artists - not only actors, but everyone around: best photographers, best set designers, best production designers, costume designers. A lot of people love his films because theyโre bloody, theyโre gory, theyโre savage. But very few people see that heโs a very political director.
