American Me also had its flaws, apparently the **** scene eight when Santana gets locked up would never happen, but you never know
Paco Salvasar (the black rooster 15 ko, he has a great right uppercut), played by Benjamin Bratt. I watched NCIS one night and the guy with the grey hair? was interveiwing some life long Mexican (tough as teak) gangster, the Mexican said I'm not tellinh you ****, the cop with the grey hair slammed his hand on the desk and the Mexican folded and said some thing like "I'll tell you what ever you want but get this guy off me" I have not watched tv since. Might have to look up American Me. You the prison in the movie is San Quinton and a lot of the extra's were inmates. I am from Australia grew up in Sydney and been living in Brisbane for three years now, you are from the US?
You are right that why the Carnales wanted to Kill Edwards J Olmos cause those **** scenes they felt made them look bad and was not accurate. like when they raped that Italian Mafia guys Son. Heard Olmos had to pay them 50 Gs to take the hit off.
Yes grew up right near where those streets are at in the Movie, Like a 10 minute drive from East LA. I was asking since you took a liking to that movie.
I just saw it when I was young (before the re-release) and took a liking to it, most of my mates are fans too.
