"Juan Hernandez was an actor out of New York, but what made Juan so great and what made Omar so great was that they both already knew how to box, so we didn't have to take them into a gym and teach them how to throw a left jab"
- Charles S. Dutton
About this Quote
This quote by Charles S. Dutton talks to the importance of having actors who already understand how to box for a role. Juan Hernandez and Omar were 2 such actors from New York. What made them so terrific was that they already knew how to box, so the production team didn't have to take them into a health club and teach them how to throw a left jab. This conserved time and money, and permitted the production to focus on other elements of the film. It also enabled the stars to concentrate on their performances, instead of having to discover a new skill. This quote speaks with the significance of having actors who currently have the skills needed for a function, and how it can benefit the production.
