My family was very, very receptive to all; all races, religions.

I grew up in a family where we weren't allowed to talk about beauty or to put any emphasis on physical appearance.

The first movie that I saw was Godzilla and I loved it.

That's what he was saying, the civil rights movement - judge me for my character, not how black my skin is, not how yellow my skin is, how short I am, how tall or fat or thin; It's by my character.

I like serious films, the moneymaking blockbusters that don't make any kind of sense and John Carpenter films.

I like to do all kinds of films.
