Life's a Bitch Life's a bitch is a movie filmed out of Mexico, which examines the life of three individuals who are all indirectly involved in the same car crash. The sequencing of the film is much like director Quentin Tarantino's Pulp fiction, in which several lives are separate, but related. Nonetheless, the movie was very interesting. Three lives were viewed, a young man and his love for his brother's wife, a model's pitiful life as an accident ruins her legs and career, and a bum hit man's yearning for his daughter and his eventual redeeming.

For more than five minutes the conversation involves the naming of the dog, in which he concludes will be Gaston, not only the name of the man who put the hit out, but the target's brother. After cleaning up and setting out having not killed his target, the bum is then asked the name of the dog by a stranger, he replies 'black ie. '.
