-->'''Stuart Gordon''': Once I was talking to an award group, I can't remember what the award itself was called but it had to do with Latino films. ''Ice Cream Suit'' was completely ignored, which amazed me. I finally talked to someone who was part of their organization, he said, 'Well you know, we don't want to show films that have Latinos living on the streets, or struggling. We want to show them as lawyers and doctors.' They were even concerned that the characters were speaking with accents. I thought, Didn't you consider that this is what it's like for most Latinos? But that's not the way they wanted to have them portrayed."
