No well I’ve you know it the character is something that I played before I’ve functioned that way in a story before um and that really interested me um I was very excited about being in first film that really showed and centers it attention on a Latino family |

Yes yes a major holiday film where it’s a Latina family and its shown very authentically and um I wanted to be apart of that and the cast the cast is just sick Alfred Molina who I’m officially in love with John Legzuiamo Louie Guizman Elizabeth Pena Freddy Rodriguez and the list just goes on and on and on and it was like being in a room playing professional ping pong everyday it was so much fun to be ensemble um I just think I just think the script it really great |

Yeah I call it a dramady I call it a holiday dramady you will absolutely laugh your gonna hear great music you will leave feeling like you cant wait to spend the holidays with your family there are real life issues that are contended which I think roots and grounds the film and makes it more universal that’s the thing I got from this film was you know I thought it was I learned so much from the Puerto Rican Culture I didn’t know what a ? was however at the end of the day it was just so clear its sort of irrelevant it doesn’t if your matter if your Irish or Italian Cuban or what have you its like the holiday’s is the same for everyone the holiday is the same for everybody everybody is anxious about going home and being together a little dread and little scared when things go south (talks) yes yes yes (talks) well you know I’m Jewish you know I feel like we are loud and passionate and I think everybody can see themselves when they watch this film |

Very very much yes its you know the core of a main conflict a culture clash and what the cultures focus on you know trying not to judge I think that’s what interested me I didn’t I was trying I was playing the audience and also to be playing this part where I am obviously on the outside I was able to show her point of view and make it understandable as well as their point of view so nobody looks like a villain |
