I Don't Ever Want To Have To

I Had To Endure The Worst Time Of All In Terms Of Racial Discrimination In Hollywood When I First Started Out. It Was Inconcievable To American Directors And Producers That A Mexican Woman Could Have A Lead Role.

I Like Being A Mother. For Some People, It's So Much Work That It Can Be A Burden. But It's Not For Me, Maybe Because I Had My Daughter, Valentina, Later On In Life, At 41.

There's A Lot About The Character. It Doesn't Always Happen, But There Are Some Characters You Really Create A Relationship With, Almost As If They Were Your Friend. And You Never Get Into Their Heads Again Or Think Like Them.

This Is Not Love. It Is A Crime... You Can't Look The Other Way Just Because You Have Not Experienced Domestic Violence With Your Own Flesh.

It Sounds Trite To Go After Men Who Are Nice But When You've Been Hurt A Lot It Becomes Appealing.
