Born In East L.A.

A Comedy Bordering On Insanity. This time Cheech is not just on the wrong side of the law. He's on the wrong side of the line. Give us your tired and poor but keep Cheech Marin. That's the hilarious situation he is faced with when he is accidentally deported to Mexico without I.D. or knowledge of Spanish and can't convince U.S. officials to let him back in. In between unsuccessful schemes to cross the border, Cheech gets duped by a dippy doorman, picked on by prison pals, smitten by a stunning senorita and befriended by some very bad boys. It all proves that this "illegal alien" may not have been born to run - especially from the immigration service - but the laughs couldn't come any faster in Cheech's first solo comedy. © Universal City Studios, Inc.
