Drama
"Piñero" tells the story of the explosive life of a Latino icon, the gay poet-playwright-actor Miguel Piñero, whose urban poetry is recognized as a pre-cursor to rap and hip-hop. After doing time in hard-core Sing-Sing for petty thefts and drug dealing, Piñero's prison experiences developed into the 1974 Tony-nominated play Short Eyes. The resulting notoriety and fame was too much for the Latino bad-boy genius who retreated to the darker corners of New York City.

>"It's not like we go into the homes of the rich and we walk out with a silver ash tray. No, we go in, and we walk out with something better - their attention. We take them to a world they used to fear. We tell them, "hey, it's cool. We used to fear you too, man."" This might've been too artsy for me. The story is good, but the storytelling jumps all over the place. It was cool seeing a bunch of unrecognizable actors that became big later on.
