This one was really good as well, but inconsistent. Narrated by Forest Whitaker, this documentary sheds light upon the Los Angeles gang life, including the social conditions that led to their formation. The problem I had here was that there were too many lulls in between interesting segments, which in a documentary, almost always results in accidental naptime. My favorite parts were the segments on South L.A. in the 50's and 60's, where they interviewed three friends who were growing up back then. The interesting part was that they were of the last generation of kids to grow up prior to the introduction of this gang culture. These three guys shared amazing quotes regarding what led up to the Watts Riots, the differences between generations, and finally, what led up to this war between Crips and Bloods. A big theme here was the de-humanization of the black male in L.A. from the 50's onwards, and how these guys were all just ticking time-bombs, liable to explode at any moment, and that moment ended up being the Watts riots (after seeing one too many guys going to jail for driving while black), and later, the Rodney King riots. If society tells you your life is worth nothing, and you subconsciously begin to believe it, then how is killing others a big deal? I don't value my own life, so why should I value the lives of others? Probably only recommended if you're interested in gangs/criminology, otherwise, I could see some being bored.
