This is one of the few movies that brought tears to my eyes.
This movie is powerful and about as real of a movie you will ever see about racism amongst Blacks & Latinos.
So sad that we in 2007 still live in a country that judges a person by the color of his skin.
Speaking as a Black man. I've dealt with prejudicism amongst Whites but never with Latinos but I've had a friend that did because he dated a Hispanic chick.
I never could understand how Blacks & Latinos could be prejudice amongst each other seems to me we should be united since both races had to deal with the hardships of White America.
All I can say this movies definitely hit a homerun with me and if you know anyone that is prejudice amongst Blacks & Latinos.
Play this Movie for them and I bet they will get a reality check for real.

They just better not try to date anyone in my family. It's a shame that we still live in a society were people (minorities included) can't see past the color of a persons skin.

This movie puts the spotlight on the harsh reality that this type of thing goes on everyday, in every community. What a shame!

I recommend this movie...

This story gets to the bottom of interracial relationships between blacks and Latinos. It brings the topic of what happens when friendship crosses the line. What influences our change judgment and beliefs?

I purchased this dvd to show to my students who were studying Romeo and Juliet and who had read the novel, Romiette and Julio. I thought the inter-racial tensions would tie in nicely to the play and the novel. While the storyline does provide a good match, the overuse of profanity makes it impossible to use. I understand that it is important to portray characters realistically, but swearing for swearing sake does not enhance anything, and this is true for this film. What a disappointment...save your money and if you do want to see this...rent it instead!
