  • Quotes
    [naming the reasons that lured her to star in Alfonso Cuarón's Roma (2018)] Working with an artist the magnitude of Alfonso, the character role and the fact that it was in black & white. I really liked how it signified the return of a director born in Mexico, who has achieved international recognition, but who feels an enormous gratitude to his origins as marked by this film. There is nothing about this project that anyone could say 'no' to. It is really a gift of life.
