First time I met him, He came into the Prison Work release program I was at. Orion House in Van Nuys Ca. Came in on a Panel to talk to us about Getting Off the Drugs. He is an Easy person to talk with & Very Humble. Committed to helping Others. An Example we ALL could learn from.
“Everything good that has happened to me has happened as a direct result of helping somebody else. Everything.” Powerful stuff. If I recall he also said that right after rescuing a baby from a wrecked car. Powerful stuff.
I love this guy. 50+ years of recovery? That’s truly inspirational. And, everything that’s happened for him was the direct result of him helping someone else. How could you NOT love this guy? I LOVE this guy.
"Everything good that has ever happened to me in my life....EVERYTHING...Has come as a direct result of me helping someone else." A great man and an absolute legend!
Danny and my brother were the best of friends for many years as my brother was also in recovery...He was one of the main speakers at my brothers celebration of life which was a Native American ceremony...He is funny, kind, blunt, giving, honest, loving, loves to fish and no he’s not scary at all...I have a whole photo album of him and my brother deep sea fishing in Mexico that I will cherish always...He is a truly good man!!!
Wow man that’s really cool you have all those memories with Danny and your brother, I could always tell he was a good guy but the more i find out about Danny He’s really a living legend at this point, I wish I could meet him one day 🙄🙏
Danny Trejo deserves an Oscar more than most who receive them. I can't think of a more hardworking actor, who has remained humble and a genuinely lovely human being
I just watched this and so glad I did...this man is the perfect example of redemption why everyone deserves a second chance.....he is a true inspiration
I can't WAIT! Love Danny Trejo! He "wears" his grit, humor and just down right intrepid nature, in any role he plays (from Machete to playing the hilarious vampire on Dusk to Dawn making a cameo on What We Do in the Shadows), on his sleeve! This is one guy whose success is BEYOND deserved! May you keep on truckin' Danny!
This man is credited for over 300+ movies, that’s insane. He gives so much of his time to help others, such a good hearted person. I would definitely love to met him
You're right up there Danny Trejo sir!! All your hard work and dedication and commitment to the industry alone should be rewarded with a symbolic accolade even though I know you're more than JUST an accolade. I simply admire and love the way you turned your life around and help others in similar situations, ISN'T that one of the greatest LOVE you can give in life!! Bless you, you're my HERO!!
Watched this with tears in my eyes. What a transformation he made. Really incredible. He really is a good dude when it's all said and done. I think he answers the age old question of nature or nature. It's nature every time.
Can't wait for this ! Danny was great in Spy Kids etc, I'd really love to see him play Lobo for the Lobo movie (or and this is a stretch, Jason Momoa!)
Man i just saw that and wow! I recommend that everyone take a look at his story it is crazy. Talk about turning your life around. Jesus Christ. Imagine what trigger him making a change in his life full 360. Left a negative prison life to go back to prison with a positive life to give back full circle 360. Crazy!
Danny, you're one of the people that this wold really needs to have around and keep on teaching others about doing good things without expecting anything in return. But that line and your laughter haha maaan made me laugh also: "I had a sawed off shotgun and a hand grenade and I buried those in the backyard, so I told my mom be real careful in the backyard." Ahahahahaha
What a man,a person to look up to is not about sports moviestar rich person but rather a real man or woman who came only from adversity to become humble good and someone who knows it all came from God.He is a hero
I will never forget first seeing him in Desperado. Desperado was such a unique ground breaking mind blowing movie Antonio Banderas, Salma Hayek, Quentin Tarantino, Cheech Marin, Steve Buscemi A list actors, non stop action, awesome soundtrack, it had everything. Danny Trejo as the knife throwing assassin was the absolute stand out. It is a face and a performance you never ever forget. And then to find out he is the nicest kindest gentleman you could ever hope to know, that's the cherry on the cake. Long live Danny Trejo! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Brilliant documentary, just saw it on Sky the other day. He has such a fascinating back story, and has done remarkable to go from street thug to Hollywood star
I've loved this guy's stuff since I was a kid in the 90's. Danny can and has played everyone and everything from every walk of life because he knows what it's like on the other side and he beat the badguy in the mirror. He's really a great human being and so many people should take notes from him. I know I'm a minority, but if there's one character in his roster that I think is representative of the real him, it's probably Raul Tejada from Fallout New Vegas.
Haven't they done a documentary on Danny, Tittle Champion. So I guess this is a reboot Inmate number 1. Well the Last one looked cheap. So this got to be a bigger budget n with More of his Family & Friends, Writers directors producers From Hollywood wow
Do not believe the hype! Danny was a gangster? Come on... The dude sells vegan tacos. VEGAN TACOS!! What kind of gangster does that? (Note: this is sarcasm. I actually have nothing but mad props for the man. And yes, he does sell vegan tacos. )
A1 just seen it. Thats life and he was delt the right cards knowing the right people. His life had to happen the way it did.if not we wouldnt have Machete.
Hollywood should give this man a lifetime achievement award at the oscars hes deserves it
They won't cause they racist

He's someone who really turned his life around. Didn't know they were making a documentary film about it! Should be interesting to watch.

I've ADORED this man for years! This looks amazing!
IM SO PUMPED TO SEE THIS! Hell yeah Danny! You deserve it!
He should have been in the expendables
Machete not expendable
He would steal the show.
RoseOfHizaki exactly! They don't need that kind of competition
I can't WAIT! Love Danny Trejo! He "wears" his grit, humor and just down right intrepid nature, in any role he plays (from Machete to playing the hilarious vampire on Dusk to Dawn making a cameo on What We Do in the Shadows), on his sleeve! This is one guy whose success is BEYOND deserved! May you keep on truckin' Danny!
The man was in the movie HEAT. With Robert de Niro and Al Pacino. It doesn't get better than this.
This man is credited for over 300+ movies, that’s insane. He gives so much of his time to help others, such a good hearted person. I would definitely love to met him
Incredible to see someone turn around and contribute to life in a positive manner! Well deserved recognition!

In a strange way, Danny Trejo is a lovable person..
A tough guy yet funny...
A legend.
Definitely want to see this.

Danny played a character called Trejo in HEAT. Why isn't that mentioned. He got beaten to death by Wayne Gro.
That was one of his finest roles
Simple yet brilliant
A beautiful soul with a great message.
I'd enjoy seeing this,am a huge Fan of Danny Trejo. Great Talented Actor!
He once saved someone from a burning car because he is a real life hero. Lol
His laughter 🤣🤣🤣
This is what a REAL MAN looks and acts like!
When is this coming out?
When was this film released?
Very Inspiring. I LOVE DANNY!
Love this guy ❤❤
I've been following him on social media for as long as I can think and he's the only person I "stan" for no matter how cringey that term is
Danny Trejo realy gretetest actor of all times . # El es numero 1.
This man is amazing!
What is the name of the song that plays when Danny waits for his son to come out of jail
Amazing human being!
Muy bien amigos. VAYA CON DIOS!

Luvmesum Trejo!
Haven't they done a documentary on Danny,
Tittle Champion.
So I guess this is a reboot
Inmate number 1.
Well the Last one looked
cheap.
So this got to be a bigger budget n with
More of his
Family & Friends,
Writers directors producers
From Hollywood wow
Do not believe the hype! Danny was a gangster? Come on... The dude sells vegan tacos. VEGAN TACOS!! What kind of gangster does that?
(Note: this is sarcasm. I actually have nothing but mad props for the man. And yes, he does sell vegan tacos. )
Coming wen ? in my cantry i canot faind dis docomentary move :(
July 7th it will be available worldwide on most VOD platforms
@@scoreG That's a pity, in normal times it would deserve a big cinema release. Streaming is kind of a softer more diffused release.
My crush 🖤
It looks very good.
For me this is a crack
A1 just seen it. Thats life and he was delt the right cards knowing the right people. His life had to happen the way it did.if not we wouldnt have Machete.
♥♥♥♥♥
Actually he's a product of American society who happened to get lucky. That's the real story.
Danny Trejo vs Clinton Eastwood
HeAt
