“If you wish to destroy an area, how do you do it? Well there are two ways: you can go in there and bomb it and so forth, but that is not very efficient. What you do is you try to get the people in that area to kill each other and to destroy their own territory, their own farms, and that’s what’s been done in that area. So, the way in which you destroy an opponent, is get him to destroy himself, by dividing his ranks against one another.”

First of all, Olmos did not properly ask the permission of the gang bosses to make this movie, and have characters that were based on real life. He actually lied about getting the OK. Then he got way in over his head with creative liberties. Rodolfo Cadena (the real-life Santana) was not really raped in Juvie. It was also not true that he ended up being murdered by his own crew. The hit was carried out by rival Nuestra Familia. It was true however that at the time his significance in La Eme was diminishing. At any rate, people got murdered because of these, and Olmos had contract for years

Gunner 249 he wasn't escared of nothin or PEPO...

Olmos really did try his best to do the right thing.... he couldn't control the political aspects of the streets.

These Teens look so happy to be known and to have a part on something possitive in their comunity...too bad it was short lived...It was only a Movie.

Bottom line is people create their own paths and choose to live a good life or a life of destruction! There is no easy way for the majority of us, you either make the choice to educate yourself and build a life, or choose to blame circumstance and what you don't or didn't have as an excuse for not doing the right things? Life is hard no matter how much you have or don't have and it's much more difficult to be part of the solution than it is being the problem? proving everyone wrong is one of the sweetest victories in life and sets an example for other family and friends...

So true, i used to think all this bullshit where so cool watching these movies admiring their life. No i find it sad man. Wadting their life trying to defend a street corner, shooting themself, ur own people. Pathetic and sad man. How can people become so stupid and idiots. The politicians probably laugh their ass of when this kids shoot themself.

wow I still never knew Edward James olmos not only acted in the movie but also directed it

6:48 Ana Lizarraga was one of the numerous ppl murdered for contributing to this film RIP

I need to get the guy at the end's mixtape.

opening scene~ i always wondered where "Dystopia", got that sample. at the end~ damn, homie can freestyle

I seen it happen, you know, with my eyes. -Homie at the end. 🤣

Wonder what ever happened to these people, so many probably died, went to prison, fell in love, had family’s, everybody has a story. Crazy to see this kinda stuff.

This is a movie of its own . I love my raza I pray the violence will end and chicanos can live in peace because Now more than Ever we need to stick Together no matter what gang u claim we are only here for a short time and then we will be standing before God being judged . We Chicanos got so many different talents but our Pride is what makes us Foolish. #nothingbutLove ✊

My Dad's from EAST LA TERCERA shout-out the rest of the home boys from 3rd STREET

I love this movie. Life imitating art? I know this movie did more harm than good. It glorified the gangs and made hopeless chicanos follow negative stereotypes .

Off topic but it’s wild watching movies like this and blood in blood out at different stages of your life and relating to a different character each time

I wonder, have any of these gang members that stared in the movie, been blessed with a career in the movie business from the opportunity?

can't believe i haven't seen this doco abt American Me before .Edward james olmos is da real OG.One of my all time fav Gstarr movies

Very underrated actor Edward James Olmos.
