Lines: 14 El Norte was pretty good. It is a documentary about the journey of a central american brother and sister through Mexico into L.A. where they are illegal aliens. It has some humor in it such as the situation where the sister is confronted by having to use one of thoose modern washing machines. It also invokes sympathy for them. All together it does give one a good perspective of the life of an illegal alien and a good contrast between life in the US and life in an under developed. ....Laurence UCLA CS Dept.
