      Audience Member this is one of my favorite movies. certainly my favorite Victoria Abril who plays a Mexican prostitute who is caught in a hooker love triangle in between 2 US border patrol agents. 1 she falls in love with while boning the 2nd who she detests but she's a hooker & he has money. it is very messy & Victoria is so beautiful that it makes it believable. ppl will recognize a young Scott Wilson from The Walking Dead as the scumbag border agent who uses his power to keep the lovers apart by destroying their lives forcing her to return to prostitution so he can continue to have sex w her. David Carradine plays a former border patrol who quits to become a human trafficker decides to help the embattled couple as a way to get revenge on the patrol. the ending scene is the Mexican hooker(Victoria Abril) using a bright orange/red speak&spell toy to translate Spanish to English for a love letter she is clumsily writing her boyfriend who is now in prison. yeah this film is very very insulting & unacceptable according to 2021 sensibilities. this movie kicks ass. i recommend to anyone w a dark sense of humor but i don't recommend it to racists bc it would probably boost their MAGA energy. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member The B-level acting in this film preclude it from conveying anything meaningful.
