Poto and Cabengo (1978) is a compelling visit with two young San Diego twins who have invented their own language. In Routine Pleasures (1986), Gorin conjoins the story of a group of model train enthusiasts in Del Mar with a meditation on the work of critic and painter Manny Farber. And My Crasy Life (1992) is an expectation-shredding exploration of a Samoan gang in Long Beach. With these three films, Gorin excavates hidden communities that are a part of everyday American life, and shows himself to be a major chronicler of what is eccentric and beautiful in our common culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eINCLUDES:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePOTO AND CABENGO\u003cbr\u003eJean-Pierre Gorin 1980\u003cbr\u003eGracie and Ginny are San Diego twins who speak unlike anyone else.
