You can't base this movie on real gangsters and then disrespect them by adding essay scenes that didn't happen in real life.
And Edward's like, but it's more theatrical this way, so I took some artistic liberties.
And Danny's like, artistic liberties?
This is the Mexican Mafia.
They'll kill you.
But see, Edward, he ain't trying to hear all that.
I mean, movies based on true stories take artistic liberties all the time, and he wants his movie to be good.
So Danny warns him again.
You need permission from the top.
Go to the head of the Mexican mafia and get the okay.
And for whatever reason, Edward then tells him, I did.
I met with Peg Leg, and he gave me the okay.
Of course, he didn't meet with Pegleg or anyone.
No one gave him the okay.
He just said that.
Now, later that night, Danny, he's at home, and he has serious doubts about the Mexican mafia giving Edward the okay.
Then his phone rings, and on the other end of the line is this guy, Pegleg.
And Pegleg, he's the head of the Mexican Mafia and one of the guys Edward's movie is based on.
Now, Pegleg is also calling from prison.
And even though he's locked up, he's already heard about the movie Edward is making about him and his gang.
