This director, her name is Deepa Mehta. And she did a movie called Water which was an
absolutely exquisite film. And after I saw the film I called her representation and I said please let
me just meet her. And when I met her I said I really would love to work with you. Just tell me
how. I’ll send you every script that I have. I think that movie was so touching, so beautiful, so
real. And she gave me a script called Stella, and which we’re going to shoot in India in the end of
February. And so in answer to your question, I’m not answering your question really, but I’m
going to get there. Yes. The answer is yes. Yes, I think as we see performances in let’s say
Indian films and we see something special, we’re going to bring it to what we’re doing. You
know if, you know obviously the film would have to be something that was noticed by the
Academy. And let’s say they were five foreign films. I think there are a lot of incredible Chinese
actors like in Lust Cushion. I don’t know if you’ve seen that. It’s a new movie. There’s an
actress by the name of Tang Wei and Tony Leong, two spectacular, I know I would like to work
with them and use them in the future. So yes. In answer to your question, yes. As we see movies,
and also I think, I just came back from London where I saw some theater and saw some
wonderful performances with Ewan McGregor and Chiwetel Ejiofor. That’s a name for you.
He’s somebody who’s starting to do movies and really terrifically talented. And I met a young
man today by the name of Nathaniel Parker, Nate Parker and he’s just in the Great Debaters with
Denzel Washington that Denzel just directed. And I think he had a wonderful presence in the
movie. Yes, so as we see movies; as we go to theater, as we, you know, look at the magazines
and see a face, yes. I think if we pull, if we’re casting, or producing, or directing, we try to reach
out to new people no matter who they are and where they’re from, and to see if they can fit into
what we’re doing. So yes.
