There's a lot of things, even the landscape that we show in the movie [Everybody Loves Somebody] of Ensenada in Baja is just spectacular. There's so much more - I wish we could have shown more, but I'm glad we didn't see the typical, you know, border-sombrero-tequila thing that we normally do.

People follow my movies for a reason, and that's because I believe in them, and I don't want to just make movies for the sake of making movies.

I felt really strongly about this script [ Everybody Loves Somebody] because, like you said, it's a very specific way of life.

I think that, for sure, we as women should try and realize that it's more about having someone to share.

I hope that we start trendsetting [with Everybody Loves Somebody], you know, like having bigger movies also include that. Because I think it'll definitely change a lot of what's going on right now.

This movie [Everybody Loves Somebody] is as much for the general market as it is for Latino audiences. That's a really exciting prospect.

There's not enough of those inclusive projects where I feel like I'm interpreting a human being and not just a statistic or a nationality.
