This movie was able to reach me. the one movie that I watched when I was young teen and given me an outlook on relationship, especially the example a real - yet ever so passionate Latino couple.

I'm talking about the movie that was funny and real about Love - well ghetto love.

After 13 years this movie's theme still rings true not only to us caserio (The hood)- love struck Latinos but to all people in the Caribbean (right B Mak?) and all over the states. Maybe even a nook in Germany quien sabe (who knows)?

I know for those of you who watched this underground independent classic, know what I'm talking about

I remember so much from it and I love the soundtrack to it. I like the poetic sense of the story. Even the little bit gritty-not-so-polished-life these character had. It influenced my way of telling a story through video. I'm so grateful that Darnell Martin, the director had vision to put this story together.

In the end the film is greatly moved by Lisette and her overcoming her obstacles from financial, emotional, physical and mental chaos.  

"Alexis lend me  Alexis lend me" is the unforgettable words from Lisette's um sister. I personally will never forget her/him saying  "give me back my tetas!"

This film will take you on a roller coaster of emotions. Definitely track it down and watch it. I think Amazon had it under $10.

Okay, going to take a nap I'm worn out from nostalgia
