“I told my friend - we were working on a movie together - and he gave me a script and asked me to give him notes. And they were all male characters, and I said, "You know what would make this character more interesting?" And he asked what - and it's this road trip between three guys, basically, one older man, one 30-year-old and a 13-year-old mechanic. And I said, "If you make the 13-year-old a girl, and you make her an Indian-American mechanic." And he said, "What do you mean?" And I said, "Yeah, don't change anything in the script about him, and just make it a her."” IfsKnowsMenGivingYearsMeanSaidCharacterTogetherGuyGirlThreeInterestingMy FriendsYeahNotesMalesScriptsIndianMechanicDon't ChangeAmerican IndianRoad TripOlder Man Author:Karla Souza
