    • 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."

      [cut to Sad Girl sitting in a chair with a baby in her lap]

      Sad Girl: "But they don't say that to me no more."

    Mi Vida Girls
    Excellent movie.

    This is the birth of hood-rats and the choices to make. "Why you gotta be like this?"

    Really? That's the guy and life you want to follow? It's sad cases that you can see happens in real life as well.

    Visions of hope and the tragedy mixed in you can see coming a mile away. They think they're the "baddest" girls around, they fight each other, their boyfriends, rivals and just life in general.

    It's another world that lives beneath, the urban lifestyle trapping the girls in a place that most people would never want to live in.
