I enjoyed the movie but...... since when can a women get pregnant when the sperm is emited on her leg? I am a nurse and this is not possible. Sperm do not climb into the vagina. And why would a conservative minister father suddenly be so forgiving and feel guilty when he discovers that the 14 year old daughters sexual activity involved nudity and intimacy but just not full penetration. True to character he would still be very upset with her.more

No one is perfect and this film may have its flaws but what a realistic and refreshing look at LA! The young actors do a great job, portraying their characters genuinely -- no trickery, no exaggeration. The film-makers successfully depict the Echo Park area, with its people and its traditions as well as the new challenges facing the populations of Metropolitan LA. It is indeed good to see Los Angeles in a new light, with its culturally rich neighborhoods that tend to be either forgotten or ill-represented by mainstream Hollywood films. My personal pleasure: finally a film with actors that look like and speak like the characters they embody! The Spanish spoken is correct and accents are credible! Definitely recommend it.
