What they’re saying
“I’m the Argentinian swashbuckler. I’m the best tango dancer in Paris. Very Latino forward, and so, I’m not Argentinian. I’m Cuban-Puerto Rican, and I was born and raised in Hialeah, Florida, but I bring a lot of that Latin flair into the character.”
— Danny Burgos, Actor (Deco)
“It is the perfect intro musical. You are gonna get music that you know and love, and then all you have to do is focus on the story, which is the fun part.”
— Danny Burgos, Actor (Deco)
