Since ‘Heroes’ started, I’ve probably had about 15 or 16 film scripts sent to me with Indian characters, and out of those, maybe one was good Picture Quote #1

I come from Venezuela, from the independent film arena, and you work with one camera Picture Quote #1

The cool thing about ‘Spy Kids 3D: Game Over’ was that Robert Rodriguez brought back 3D. I feel like he did with that film. Now, every film is 3D Picture Quote #1

You can film me 24 hours a day and you’ll get a very accurate picture of who I am. You see the funny side, I work hard, and I try to be honest and just call it how it is Picture Quote #1

My first film was a comedy, but after that I went always into more heavier stuff Picture Quote #1

I didn’t set out to be a villain in film. I’m a character actor, and if my first movie was a comedy, I could have played a geek just as well Picture Quote #1

The film industry has been extremely welcoming to me. It’s an industry which is biased to what they think is talent. If they think you can bring value to cinema, they’ll support you Picture Quote #1

I do a film if it interests me, has a connect with the audience and some entertainment value. The rest doesn’t matter Picture Quote #1

But I feel that I have a responsibility to help the film and I have relations with the studio and with those who put up the money so that I can tell a story that I believe in Picture Quote #1

But I suppose film is distinctive because of its nature, of its being able to cut through time with editing Picture Quote #1

I personally believe the film turns out better when shot in one short schedule, plus it doesn’t stress the actors Picture Quote #1

I think you get out of film school what you put into it. If you don’t care about making movies, film school will do you no good Picture Quote #1

But I won’t work with the exact same crew film after film because I feel the work would get a little complacent Picture Quote #1

People in the fashion industry have used the press a lot more than people in the film industry, because you have nothing to sell except for the image: The image is everything Picture Quote #1

But with the right kind of coaching and determination you can accomplish anything and the biggest accomplishment that I feel I got from the film was overcoming that fear Picture Quote #1

I love silent cinema but don’t hold it sacred. Like any branch of film there are some very boring films alongside the masterpieces Picture Quote #1
