‘Mi Vida Loca’

I was reading about the movie “Mi Vida Loca” prior to Kevin Thomas’ movie review (“The Road to ‘Mi Vida Loca’ Paved With Good Intentions,” July 22). And I was poised to write. I wanted to express that the blight of society that this film depicts does not represent any large proportion of Latin society.

But Thomas says it sincerely in his closing paragraph. “More than anything else, ‘Mi Vida Loca’ makes the case for how important it is that ethnic and minority filmmakers get the opportunity to tell the stories of their own people.”
