After Zorro, people spoke Spanish to me for ages. I’m Welsh but that movie instantly gave me a new ethnicity.
And it is because a series of elements in Spanish life which operate today the same way as they did in the times of Blanco White made obvious my relationship with him, based on a similarity in Spain’s condition.
And though various organizations in America and England collected money and sent food parcels to these refugees, nothing was ever received by the Spanish.
And with each day that passed, the gulf broadened and my isolation became more accentuated. In such a situation, the discovery that my experience was not unique, that it had also been that of other Spanish intellectuals, became very important for me.
As a Latino growing up in Spanish harlem, it’s not easy trying not to be hot-headed.
As far as film goes, I enjoy all Hollywood films and all Horror films like The Bride of Frankenstein, which also might be my favorite. I like 60’s and 70’s Italian and Spanish Horror films.
At this moment, by an undeserved stroke of fortune, I am the direct voice of the poets of my race and the indirect voice for the noble Spanish and Portuguese tongues.
Between his eyes, there were four lines, the marks of such misery as children should never feel. He spoke with that wonderful whisky voice that so many Spanish children have, and he was a tough and entire little boy.
BUT, in terms of attractiveness, speaking in terms of physical aspects only I think that Argentinean, Italian, Mexican, and Spanish men are among the most attractive men.
Everything that is really Mexican is either Aztec or Spanish.
First of all, the music that people call Latin or Spanish is really African. So Black people need to get the credit for that.
I am afraid the Spanish American has not always a very strict regard for truth.
I am recording my first CD in Spanish and preparing myself for the next stage of my career.
I am the only British writer who writes in Spanish.
I found out about the Spanish war because I was in Germany when it began.
I have no idea why one of our most original filmmakers would want to spend two years of his life translating someone else’s movie from Spanish into English. And it wasn’t such a good film in Spanish, either.
I listened to classical guitar and Spanish guitar, as well as jazz guitar players, rock and roll and blues. All of it. I did the same thing with my voice.
I live in London and I am a British subject, although I do write in Spanish, of course.
I look at myself, and I see a Spanish person who’s trying to be understood by an English-speaking audience and is putting a lot of energy into that, instead of into expressing himself freely and feeling comfortable.
I might say something in Spanish; it all depends on how I’m feeling, what the situation is.
