Cesar Chavez kind of sucked.

Also They're weren't any mexican (chicana) actresses to play the two female leads? They went out and got a Puerto Rican and a Honduran girl ( both fine as hell by the way). Crazy.

Moonrise Kingdom was Dope. Thanks for the recommendation Siccness members. I don't usually even like Wes Anderson movies.

Be thankful they at least had Latino actors in the movie

It's bad enough we're the majority in the United States but it's never depicted on film or in the media.

Besides that I feel the Cesar Chavez movie was ok, it's not really an exciting story to begin with. They did what they could with what they had.
