Born in east la leggy redhead

Description:For instance, an apparently harmless and helpless middle aged gringo couple in their winnebago turn out to be up to their necks in smuggling. At the outset he trawls round Silverlake and environs in pursuit of a leggy redhead with a French accent. Marin plays Rudy, a fairly thoroughly deracinated Los Angelino who speaks no Spanish and is completely ignorant of Latino music, for instance , who by one of those strange mix-ups finds himself taken to be an illegal and deported to Mexico. Once in Tijuana, however, Rudy learns to appreciate the perhaps more homely virtues of the latina woman, as he also accepts that as far as US immigration is concerned, he himself for all his protestations of US citizenship is as shifty and untrustworthy as the next wetback seeking work north of the Rio Grande. For sure, this is the film's ideological blindspot: Cheech Marin's Born in East L. Above all, Chicano identity at least is revealed as a set of discrete and transferable gestures and vocalizations.
