Description: THE LATIN LEGENDS OF COMEDY are the top three Latino funnymen in the country: JJ Ramirez, Angel Salazar and Joe Vega. I have watched these three comics perform countless times, and they always hit it out of the park.
Each comic has been entertaining different types of audiences for over twenty years, and throughout that time have remained close friends, a rarity in an extremely competitive world. The first time JJ did standup, for example, Joe was there, and they immediately became best friends. When Angel prepared to try out for "Scarface," he called the other two men to tell them about the audition. When Joe discovered a new venue, he passed the information on to his buddies.
The more I worked with them, the more it started to bother me that despite their individual successes and achievements, they have more or less flown under the radar. I loved that each of them had their own style, yet on the same show they managed to complement each other perfectly; JJ with his cool attitude, Joe's classic-comic style, and Angel's outrageous antics.
They deserved more, and audiences deserved them. And I had some credit cards with room on them.
When I proposed doing a film about them, they were excited, but skeptical; many years in a hard business can add up to many unfulfilled promises. But after much cajoling and endless mojitos, they agreed, buying into my passion. They were excited: being headliners, they almost never got to work together.
I shot more than one show for the movie, but ultimately ended up using the performances that each comic did from the SAME SHOW. I didn't borrow a joke from one show and drop it in another. There is no laugh track, no gimmicks. JJ, Angel and Joe worked the same crowd in their own way, and each one of them did what always do hit it out of the park.
