I bought this DVD because it was a double feature. Born in east L.A. is a classic, it is about a mexican-american who wrongfully gets deported to Tijuana, Mexico during an immigration raid. While being in Tijuana, Mexico our featured character Rudy Guadalupe Robles(CHEECH MARIN) learns a lot about his mexican heritage. Rudy struggles in Tijuana because he does not speak spanish. He later meets a caucasian club owner named Jimmy (Daniel Stern) and Jimmy gives Rudy a job that pays slave wages. Rudy needs that job in order to be able to cross the border back into America.

"Cheech and Chongs next movie" is about two pot heads that are on a mission: to retrieve a special suitcase. Cheech has a cousin named Red who is coming into L.A. and has a suitcase full of marijuana. Cheech sends his dumb friend Chong to meet his cousin Red. While in L.A. Red decides to stay at a hotel but is unable to pay the bill. The receptionist Paul Reubens (a.k.a. PEE WEE HERMAN) decides to keep Reds suitcase until the bill is paid. Since Red doesn't have the money to pay the hotel bill PEE WEE decides to call the COPS, and the rest is hilarious.

I had told my childern,28/26 about these movies(esp with Tommy Chong being on the that 70's show) They thought these where a HOOT!!. Now have 2 more Cheech & Chong fans

Nice Dreams is a classic flick, beyond the blockbuster Up in Smoke.Yes Pee Wee Herman is great, and Cheech, even though he gave Tommy Chong a putdown (speaking about his role in the cop show Nash Bridges, "It's nice to do something without a joint in it."), should appreciate that Tommy C put him on the map. As for Nice Dreams, it's a laugh a minute, hilarious, and a little bit deep if one listens to Tommy Chong's dialog closely. I can't help being horrified that Attorney General Ashcroft could put this guy in prison for selling glassware (i.e., water pipes) over the internet!!!!!!!!!

Purchased for one of my sons, and he loves it. Great delivery service, very prompt. Good company to do business with.
