If I Would Rescue One Of My

Story Is Important But The Most Important Is The Theme And How You're Going To Convey Theme Cinematically. I'm A Believer Also.

I Left Mexico For Artistic Survival. If I Had Stayed, I Would Have Been Forced By The Government, Who Control The Movie Business, To Direct Tv Shows Or Commercials Or Infomercials For The Government.

I Used To Be Very Controlling With Visuals And Editing, And I Would Pretty Much Craft The Performances; Now I Have Learned To Trust The Material And The Actors.

It's A Cliche, But Americans Are Puritanical. In Their Movies, They Are Scared Of Sex, But They Overindulge In Violence. I Could Have Cut A G-rated Version Of 'y Tu Mama Tambien' That Would Have Pleased The American Ratings Board, But It Would Have Been Five Minutes Long.

I Have This Thing That, Once I Finish A Movie, I Never See It Again.
