In 2006, the producers of 300 made history with a groundbreaking film and impressive technical achievement. The film not only accomplished a critical and box office success (that over-indexed among Latinos), but forever changed the world of cinema with its visually sophisticated storytelling, unprecedented directing style, and highly stylized action sequence. It was a film that left a legacy of mythic proportions that has been unmatched… until now.

Latino Film Chatter got to catch up with Oscar and discuss music, “Sucker Punch” and what’s next on Oscar’s agenda.

LFC: Man you’re all kinds of Latinos Guatemala, Cuba lived in Miami…. before we start I saw that you used to be part of a band, do you still jam on the guitar?

OI: Yeah, all the time. I write music, I’m putting together some songs, I play indie-soul stuff, with a little electronica. I like bands like “Radio head” and “TV on the Radio” so yeah I’m still doing it.

LFC: How did you hear about the project: Was it something you were pursuing? Something your team brought to the table?

OI: I had not heard of “Sucker Punch” the movie prior to being called in to an audition in New York. It was about 2 years ago, and I did a monologue as ‘Blue Jones’ and I started liking all the layers this character had. I met with Zack and heard and saw his vision for this project from there on I wanted in on this.

LFC: Three words that describe Blue Jones:

OI: Charming, witty & intelligent.

LFC: Did you get to work out with the girls during their training?

OI: Yes I did! I did, I was jealous they were training three month priors. I come in and I see them training with these military guys and I’m saying to myself I want to get in on that. Jena Malone and I would always compete physically it was great training that way. I trained for about a month when I came into the movie.

LFC: Ok, so I saw Sucker Punch and I read somewhere where it was compared to “Fight-Club” meets “One Flew over the cuckoo’s nest”: I thought ok. How would you describe the movie?

OI: Above all else it’s a wild fantasy flick, it’s really bold it has those elements of anime mixed in with “Molin Rogue” meets “All that Jazz” it’s really fun.

In the gripping thriller “The Lincoln Lawyer,” Matthew McConaughey stars as Michael “Mick” Haller, a slick, charismatic Los Angeles criminal defense attorney who operates out of the back of his Lincoln Continental sedan. Having spent most of his career defending petty, gutter-variety criminals, Mick unexpectedly lands the case of a lifetime: defending a rich Beverly Hills playboy (Ryan Phillippe) who is accused of attempted murder.

However, what initially appears to be a straightforward case with a big money pay-off swiftly develops into a deadly match between two masters of manipulation and a crisis of conscience for Haller.

Directed by Brad Furman from a screenplay by John Romano, based on the novel by Michael Connelly, the cast also includes Marisa Tomei, Josh Lucas, John Leguizamo, Michael Peña, with Bryan Cranston and William H. Macy.
