My Parents Were Incredibly Strict, Almost Military

I Grew Up With A Lot Of Cats Like That And They Always Were So Surprising, Magnetic, And Electrifying. You Can't Be With Them Too Long Because They Burn You Out But The Energy, The Impulsivity, And The Freedom Connecting Them To Their Animal Energy Is Just So Powerful To Watch. It's Dangerous To Live Like That But It's Riveting To Watch.

I Keep My Kids Out Of The Whole Business Entirely. Allegra And Lucas Are Five And Six And I'm Not Interested In Them Doing Any Acting At All. I Don't Want My Kids In Show Business. I Keep Them As Far Away From My Work As Possible.

I'm Hoping My Play Opens Up Conversations, I Hope It Makes People Question Textbooks, I Hope It Makes #oscarssowhite And #hollywoodsowhite Question Things. I Hope My Play Sparks Conversation Between Latin Kids And Latin Parents And People Start Doing Their Own Due Diligence As Well, I Think It's Everyone's Responsibility.

Yes It Did Really. It Was Very Exciting To Find That My Energy Could Be Directed Into Something More Useful And Positive. I Was Starting To Get Panicked. I Was Thinking 'what Am I Going To Do With My Life?' I Wasn't Sure What Was Going To Happen. Then I Became Crazily Obsessed With Acting. I Suddenly Had A Work Ethic And Then Everything Changed Completely For The Better Because I Knew What I Wanted To Do With My Life.

Marriage Is Wild. I Thought It Was This Perfect Land Of Happiness And Joy. Wrong! After You Say You Do, You Don't For A Long Time.
