Mi Vida Loca (My Crazy Life)

Amazon.com

A rare and harsh gem of a film, Mi Vida Loca tells the story of young Hispanic women in Los Angeles and the struggles they have in a life of gangs, drugs, and personal betrayal. Mousie (Seidy Lopez) and Sad Girl (Angel Aviles) are best friends from childhood, growing up in gang-infested Echo Park and remaining loyal to each other. But when Sad Girl sleeps with Mousie's boyfriend (a drug dealer who is killed) and becomes pregnant, their friendship is ruptured. As the violence of their neighborhood erupts around them, they must try to stay together as friends despite their betrayals. This is an unforgiving look at a world where women seem to have no choice but to raise their children, deal drugs, and survive by whatever means necessary. Director Allison Anders (Gas Food Lodging) structures the film as a series of unflinching and vivid anecdotes, bringing insight to a tragic side of modern society. --Robert Lane

ORALE!! IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT THE BOYS NO MORE!!.......2007-09-02

this movie is an A man strait up. it's one of the best representing the life of the poor homegirls from the barrio. it could have been better, but those were the ways, and that's how things were in those times in the streets. two homitas down for life, then they get jumped in, then damn here comes a vato. messes it all up. here comes betrayal, hardships, and parenting. you got to run the streets and do your thing at home. it's hard in a place like that, and even harder to get out. that's the way of the world you got to do what you must to survive. just goes to show how men come and go. sometimes you got to let it go and grow up for your kids sake, and move on. head up, fight for yours, and don't let no one get you down, even if you have to go at it alone. you know. great movie, chicks all thugged out, makeups down too, great job. do recommend.
