Ramon “Mundo” Mendoza revisits the fallout surrounding the 1992 film *American Me* in this VladTV interview, explaining why one scene involving Edward James Olmos’ Santana character—widely linked to Cheyenne Cadena—angered figures tied to the Mexican Mafia. Mendoza compares the film’s prison-gang realism to *Blood In Blood Out*, praises its depiction of mannerisms, and discusses his law enforcement screening in Orange, California. He also addresses long-running claims about killings connected to the movie, saying he personally knew Charlie Brown Manriquez and Rocky “Manuel” Luna, and knew the story of Ana Lizarraga. Mendoza recalls meeting Olmos at Colima Restaurant in downtown Los Angeles with technical advisor Tony Casas, assessing rumored threats, extortion concerns, and the role of the controversial juvenile hall rape scene. Danny Trejo, Benjamin Bratt, Folsom Prison, Big Hazard, and *60 Minutes* also come up in this detailed account.
