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.

Everything I Do In My Life Is Very Instinctual And In The Moment. If I'm Attracted To Something, That's It. If I Have Reservations, Those Don't Change Till They're Resolved. My First Impression Is How I Go.

Freedom Was Taken Away From My Family Until We Landed In America And It Was Given Back To Us.

I Knew A Gentleman That I Had Worked With Over The Years, Who Is No Longer With Us, And Was A Great Influence In My Life Named Cachao - A Cuban Musician, Composer, Arranger, And Creator Of The Mambo. The Integrity Of The Journey Is What's Important - How You Conduct Yourself In The Process. That's What Cachao Was Always About. He Had Great Integrity, Great Dignity, Was Very Humble, And Dedicated To His Art.

I'm A Fan Of Ernest Hemingway Work And Specifically The Old Man And The Sea. I Researched The Relationship He Had With The Captain Of His Boat For 20 Years, Gregorio Fuentes, And That Inspired Me To Write A Screenplay About It.
