Join us for a much-quoted movie and freewheeling discussion with Jon Heder, Jon Gries and Efren Ramirez, three fan favorites from the film.

Jon Heder (Napoleon), Efren Ramirez (Pedro) and Jon Gries (Uncle Rico) have plenty of behind-the-scenes scoop on the film we all love. As the conversation goes from silly to super funny, one thing’s for sure — audiences get their money’s worth. Moderated by Lonita Cook, Film Critic at KCTV 5.
