Disney's 'Descendants' Brings Diversity in the Present
The legacy of this movie starts off the film series with a bang of magic, plot twists, and battles.
My Crasy Life (1992)
Jean-Pierre Gorin’s gripping and unique film about a Samoan street gang in Long Beach, California, is, like other works by the filmmaker, a probing look at a closed community with its own rules, rituals, and language. Part observational documentary, part fiction invisibly scripted and shaped by the director, My Crasy Life, which won a special jury prize at Sundance, is an enthralling and intensely focused contemplation of violence and dislocation.
