![]() At 18, I studied acting through TV Azteca’s Actors Education and Formation Center. ![]() MORI: At 14, I worked as a waitress in a pizzeria. Television is a fast-paced world and you don’t feel challenged after a while. After 10 years of soaps, I felt stuck in telenovelas. Films from those countries have inspired me tremendously. It would be nice to work here, but one of my biggest dreams is to make films in Argentina and Spain. MORI:I am taking English-language classes. OCR: Like former Mexican soap-opera actress Salma Hayek, would you like to conquer Hollywood? I feel nervous, but I trust that Latinos here will love the film and go see it. MORI: I’m really happy, but it’s also a huge responsibility. OCR: How do you feel about this being your first feature film opening in the United States? He wanted those scenes to be sensual, visual and beautiful. He told me that if I didn’t like what we shot, we’d repeat the scenes. Ricardo (de Montreuil) told me not to worry. MORI:It wasn’t an easy thing for me and when there are so many technicians on a set, it gets more complicated. How did you deal with disrobing for the camera? OCR: There’s been a lot of talk about the love scenes. It’s a bad situation, but it’s also a story with a message that tells women to fight for what they want. Her husband doesn’t want to make love to her and she can’t have children. She’s been in a relationship for 10 years. ![]() OCR: How do you think women will react to your character? There are many people who live this kind of life. MORI:I believe (Latinos) are ready for something like this. OCR: How have audiences in Latin America responded? In film, you have much more time and that allows you to grow as an actress. You have no time to sit down and study the character. MORI:In television, you have 30 to 40 scenes a day to tackle and you don’t have much time to prepare. OCR: What’s the difference between acting on a soap opera and on a film? My character, Zoë, has nothing to do with Barbara Mori and I welcomed that challenge. It’s a story with strong themes and it’s different than what we’re used to seeing in Latin America. ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER: Why did you decide to make a film with taboo subjects?īarbara Mori:When I got the script, I was in Mexico recording “Rubi.” I loved it. Mori, 28, was in Beverly Hills recently to promote the film, which opens in Orange County today. Set in Mexico City, the story centers around Zoë and Ignacio, a young wealthy couple who deal with adultery and bisexuality as their relationship begins to fall apart. It was during the production of “Rubi” that the actress received a script for the film version of best-selling author Jamie Bayly’s “La Mujer de Mi Hermano” (“My Brother’s Wife”). The nighttime soap went on to become a ratings powerhouse and made Mori one of the most recognizable faces on Spanish-language television. What made Rubi stand out was that she was a villain and a strong lead character. Univision’s “Rubi” catapulted Mori into the hearts of millions of viewers in Latin America and the United States in 2004. Then she was cast in a soap opera of a lifetime. Playing helpless, weepy and demure women got old. I was thinking today, because obviously because it is a topic of conversation, what would have been good for him to do to defend his wife? Maybe stand on stage and take the microphone and say 'what you're doing isn't right, because you're disrespecting my wife and that's why we're the way we are', but don't hit her you know, it doesn't hit anyone,” he added.įor the protagonist of the most acclaimed version of Rubí by critics and the public, responding to violent acts with more violence does not bring anything good, so despite her good intentions in the end the human irrationality won him, so his momentum was that seen at the Academy Awards, where that action completely overshadowed his victory.Barbara Mori has made so many telenovelas– about a dozen – that she started worrying about being stuck in a television rut. The actress continued to give an idea that it would have been perfect for the situation not to end the way it happened, since despite the physical aggression she also agrees with Smith about the lack of respect that was explicitly in the joke that caused the entire revolution on social media.
