I was relieved to find that el paso culture was represented very well in this film! It was refreshing to see real people from my city getting screen time and that they scouted from the community :’) it totally contributed to the cohesive vibe of the film!
Yes! So interesting re bob’s robe matching perfidia’s flannel! I thought his robe referenced the dude in the big Lebowski, like classic white dude jaded radical
I loved this movie and have been curious about how well it represented the locale so this was a great read. A shoutout also to Willa’s school dance look. There was so something sweet and hopeful about it but it was also a look that reflected her toughness.
thanks natalia and viv for the latino perspective in this movie!!! i felt weirdly inspired by benicio's look, his jean jacket later in the movie is also very latino imo. (+ the modelos too)

Love that they scouted real local skaters

Sensei Sergio had the best sportswear/martial arts outfits…that’s what I wanna channel for workout classes now haha. The gi pants look so comfy too
This was one of the 1st things I said to one of my fellow filmgoing friends about the movie. Cen Cal style ALL DAY!!!!
This is so fantastic! As someone with friends and family in Stockton and the Central Valley this resonated and was so spot on and good.
an overlooked part of Californian culture for sure
this means the world to hear ❤️
