Gypsy
Number one, made-for-TV movie version of Gypsy starring Bette Midler. Changed my life.
I'm No Longer Here
I was just so moved and so inspired by that film — all the technical filmmaking, how gorgeous it was, how beautifully it was shot, how skilled the storytelling was — but also just the specificity of that story.
City of God
I’m at a loss of whether or not Brazil is considered Hispanic … I’m not sure. But City of God [is] obviously such an impactful film. Watching such a social topic be depicted in a narrative film, that was another really crucial [moment].
Y Tu Mamá También
The year that Real Women Have Curves came out, we were doing the festival circuit at the same time that Y tu mamá también was doing the festival circuit. I remember being so blown away by the film for so many reasons: that Mexican filmmakers were thought of as auteurs, that [it had a] performance and story that was not about identity.

Selena
Selena was a really big one for me for the same reasons [as Stand and Deliver].
Stand and Deliver
I think the very first time I ever saw Latino American faces and creators as part of a movie that I was watching — but also that my friends watched, and that people watched in school and was a topic of conversation — was Stand and Deliver.
