Danny Trejo's incredible Hollywood story

Actor Danny Trejo explains how he got his start in Hollywood and why his early career was a natural fit: "They were giving me $50 bucks for acting like a convict. I laugh because we've been acting like convicts all our lives for free."
Trejo also recalls how his uncle Gilbert exposed him to marijuana, crime and heroin, how a production assistance with a cocaine habit led to his first break, and why he turned down a role in "American Me."
