This is a subject that I am very interested in. Years ago I worked for the United Farm Workers during their "No Grapes" campaign and I was born and raised in the San Joaquin Valley in California where their headquarters were. This movie was slow and boring and really seemed to go no where. I thought it was poorly done and didn't have the impact I would have hoped to have seen. It took forever for me to get through it. I'm sorry that I paid 10 dollars for it -- it should have been in a clearance bin somewhere for two or three at the most.

I needed to see this movie for a Sociology class I am taking about race and ethnics. After not being able to locate it at any video stores or libraries being out of it, I purchased it. I really enjoyed this movie. It changed my social outlook on a lot of things in life we may take for granted. It was better than I expected. I reccommend this movie for anyone who needs to do research or ideas on ethnics, race, or what the people would do if we wiped out an entire race for a day. This movie really puts life into perspective.
the US really did get rid of all the mexicans? this is a mock-cumentary in which all the Hispanics in CA dissapeared. kinda cheesy, but makes good points, aspects of the dilema that dont immeidately come to mind. it quotes statistics and facts, like how much illegals contribute to the system as opposed to using. i wouldnt call it entertainment, but overall worth seeing.
I like this movie because it takes place here in california and its true without mexicans, hispanics, latinos.....come on there would be nothing. The movie gives a very good example of how it works in california now. They are the ones doing stuff for americans and they need to appreciate what they do...i wish what happen in the movie would really happen in real life!! so buy this dvd A Day without a Mexican...it really really makes sense. I wanted to buy it because i have seen it before and i wanted to watch it again but this time with some friends that are not mexicans to hear their opinion about it. And truly they said its a true movie and they liked it. Thanx :]P
A friend told me to watch this movie. So I bought one and love it. I told my friend that I had bought it and he asked me if he could borrow it because it was a good movie that made him laugh, I loaned it to him. When he brought it back he gave me a big thanks and said he love watching the movie again. I was glad I had gotten it.
