I´ll check on the Blockbuster to see if the movie is there. Thanks!
Now, a quite long explanation:
Cabrawn is not really a word in spanish, is a morph or distortion of another word-->"cabrón". This one is a very well-known insult, there are two meanings: the one of the dictionary: it is how they call a man when his girl cheats on him and he does nothing to stop it; the second one is just someone that is an asshole and an annoying person. " ¡Ah Cabrón!" Is a phrase that sometimes you just say when things come out suddenlly and you are surprised. For example:
You just uploaded a photo on DevianArt and the next they you´ve got 30000 messages!---> "¡¡AH cabrón!!" You didn´t expect that.
Chilango is a despective way to name those that live in the capital of Mexico which is Mexico City. Where does it come from? No idea. But it must come from somewhere. It is so used that in the City is no longer an offense unless someone wants to piss you.
Hope it´s a little clear. You should come back to Mexico, is a great place to spend Euros and Dollars 
Just kidding.

thanks for your explanations...
well zürich switzerland, where i live, is also a great place for that...
the problem is more to have euros to spend...
i have strong memorys about mexico, my first trip far away from home...
before all this amazing huge and long street cutting the city: 'insurgentes' i think..
and the whole favellas area on the way to ?'chapultepek'? (the pyramides)
my aunt (living there) told me that more or less 1000 (or was it 100?) people were arriving in mexico every day...
i was impressed...
how many millions people in mexico?
if you see the movie, tell me what you think about, it's a kind of documentary mythos...

Yeah, the long street is Insurgentes. I heard is the longest one in a city. Chapultepec used to be a forest, but now it has changed, although some of it is under conservation most of it is gone. The pyramids are Teotihuacán--> Usual hot spot for tourists!
In Mexico, the whole country, there are approximatedly 100 million of us. But in Mexico City there are approximatedly 10 million. Is a lot!! We´re like living one on top of the other; you keep seeing construction after construction, nonstop.
I´ll search for the movie. Thanks!
