Americans are more likely to watch a film in their own language. For the rest of the world, it doesn't matter so much.

I've always seen movies in English with Spanish subtitles. For audiences around the world, the language is less important than if it's a good film.

It never crossed my mind to be a director, and I'll tell you why: because I'm a woman. It just didn't occur to me, but I knew I had to be in film.

I finally, you know, moved to Mexico City, where the film industry is. I started working there as a producer, which is a very, very valid thing for women to do, because we always produce for men, right?

I went to New York City to Columbia University, and with the first directing exercise, I knew I was a director.

I wish I had seen some women directing before - that would have given me the idea of who I was.

When I was in college, my graduation thesis was called 'Female Directors.' I interviewed all of the important female directors from Mexico. There were four. That was it.

I love getting people's opinion of what I'm doing.

I think the three Mexican directors - Alejandro Inarritu, Alfonso Cuaron, Guillermo del Toro - gave all of us foreign, and particularly Latino, directors a big break.

Directors only have instinct to work out of, because there is no formula. Formulas don't work. Actually, if you follow a formula, you will probably end up with a bad movie.

The only thing I have is instinct and intuition and just staying very, very connected to the moments and try to bring in what your gut is telling you.

I like making movies that people feel inspired by, a film that they will think about a few days after seeing it, and not entertainment that is completely forgettable the moment you walk out of the theater.

I have a handicap in that English is not my first language. So even though I'm a writer, I don't write anymore because it's just harder in English.

I am tired of having to prove myself constantly, even after being hired. Every single day, every single idea, I need to prove myself. I am tired of it!

The idea that women compete or don't like each other or undermine each other or sabotage each other, that's a big miss. That is not true at all. At all. My women connect with each other instantly and help each...

There are a lot of female directors in documentary, very talented. But it's always lower budget.
