They had their own flags tossing them out of that window and Lin is up there and when I call cut, the dancing doesn’t stop. The celebration continues. That’s why I think the big screen is fun because you can look at anybody’s face and they’re giving you everything about who they are. [Actor] Anthony Ramos is ringleader in that because he is pouring himself onto the floor for that and I cry every time I watch that, because I remember when everyone was chanting Latino! Latino! that day and then looking up at Lin and Lin is up on the fire escape and they just start chanting Lin! because he manifested a lane for all these people here and that’s pretty inspiring”
