Quotes

• “He was like twitching and frothing and it was my father, … I went like all pale. I felt all the blood leave my body. And then my father was like, 'How dare you?' And he stormed out of the theater and I followed him and we fought and argued and hugged and he cried and we made up.”
• “Latins for Republicans - it's like roaches for Raid.”

• “He made the characters a lot more three-dimensional. It's still a 'B' movie and it's still kinda campy. Now it's these really well-developed characters, really three-dimensional.”
• “He thinks he can use the jail for networking to be somebody. In that way, he's always operating.”
• “He wanted to be a lawyer, couldn't afford it, so he started dealing to go to college - good intention.”
