Born in East L.A
Cheech Marin has his tried-and-tested style, which he remains faithful to today. The cast is also extremely convincing in their roles. I sat in the cinema for a long time after the movie ended, reflecting on my thoughts, and returned home in a calm and meditative mood. Born in East L.A without doubt has excellent dialogoues. I walked into this movie totally blind. I knew nothing about it, even never saw a trailer... That movie sticks out in my mind with how good it was. Maybe because I just didn't expect it. You can watch it online here on this website and add your own subtitles if you are not native english speaker.
