Quotes:
Sad Girl: When Mousie and me joined our gang, all the names were taken except Mousie and Sad Girl. Everyone said Maribel should be Mousie cuz she was so little. Sleepy said "No stupid because then we're gonna have to name Mona Sad Girl and she's not sad at all." Rascal said "Stupid , it don't matter." Sleepy was mad and kept saying "She's too happy to be Sad Girl."

A unique look at the inner structure of L.A. gangs, 12 August 2001
8/10
Author: gipz

"Mi Vida Loca" is a film showing what it's like to grow up in a gang; but its uniqueness is that the story is told from the female viewpoint ~ what it is like to grow up as a homegirl is very different from what it is like to belong to a gang as a male.
