hmmmmmmm! dunno! nasty things happened there too! just check what happened to Lara Logan! no matter how u put it, a coup is bloody! except velvet revolutions, but those are rare sruffs!
Che Guevara was a killer and a murderer. He killed hundreds of innocent Cubans that wanted freedom. He was a terrorist. Che Guevara and Fidel Castro destroyed Cuba. Cuba Libre!!!!! Free Cuba!!!!! abajo fidel!!! abajo raul!! abajo che!!! abajo con el communismo!!!!!abajo con el socialismo!!!!
@Tusc9969 It's called a coup 'd etat, fucker. And you would know about the revolution because you're American? All you are is a worthless communist hick. Try talking to a Cuban such as myself. I'm surprised your ego hasn't choked you by now.
@Tusc9969 Lol, this IS my country, SPIC. All I Know is that most of you "former" commies applauded that dictator and now you swim over to MY country crying for help- here's an idea, tell your people to stand up against the castros and chase them out of town and stop whining to our "american" politicians to do alll your work for ya...got that greaseball?
@MissCynsere Well someone in the cuban military must stage a coup against thier own goverment and the people WILL follow and support it IF they really want it. If the russians were capable of bringing down the soviets, cuban people should be able to do the same....if they have the courage and desire to do so!
@Tusc9969 a military coup is worse than Castrist rule! it is always dangerous to let the army get into politics! look what happened in Chile and Burma when they did it!
Will there also be a "documentary" about the murderers in Miami ? Cuban exile TERRORISTS like Luis Posada Carriles ("South America's Bin Laden" who blew up Cubana Flight 455 in 1976), Orlando Bosch (his partner in crime), Felix Rodriguez (point man for Oliver North in Iran/Contra, trained central American death squads), Alpha 66 (Gusano = Al Qaeda), Brigade 2506, etc -- Just go to Versailles restaurant in Miami where these assassins will be sitting up front.
It is trully astonishing to me how people can be so missinformed or uncapable of seeing the revolution in its whole, who it was fighting and better yet the kind of system it challenged. Batista was a cold blooded assasin, oppressive bastard. who probably killed more people than Che ever did. either directly or indirectly through his systematic oppressive regime of the poor who constanty died of starvation and health problems. Yes it true that people died in the revolution, but analyze who.
seseanjones said, "this guy needs to learn to be himself, in stead of trying to walk like and act like the great alpacino. the real king... "
Andy Garcia is an excellent actor on his own. He doesn't have to copy Pacino. He's got his own style. Just see the film, "Modigliani" and you'll see. I doubt even Pacino could have done that part.
Thank you Andy for bringing to light the cowardness of Che Guevara and the plight of our people. I met Andy at Fed Ex in Downtown Miami. Whit a nice and humble man. The Cuban American Community and I are proud of you. God Bless.
Add me to the list getsumharley! Its a seldom heard story that needed to be told. I am very proud of Andy for defying the Hollywood left and the mainstream media, and telling the world the truth of what happened to our beautiful island almost 50 years ago. Thank you Andy!
Batista was a criminal and a thief. Fidel is guilty of moral and ethnic genecide. If you are Cuban and lived both opressions as we did you are qualified to comment if not, shut up.
there is one thing about fidel I didnt like and that is that he persecuted homosexuals. Ohter than that, It is more immoral to allow the majority of your people to die because they cant afford or ever reach a better life. Choosing between a system of disproportionate wealth distribution where the majority have nothing and the very few have it all, or a system of equality where everyone has the bare necessities but have health, food, shelter and education, I go with #2.
You do not know the half of it. I wish you well. Fidel and his Brother Raul are horrible human beings. Everything and everyone that they are against suffer and suffer they do. From making Aids colonies where if you are HIV positive you are locked up and separated from society to the horrible abuses against disidents etc.. Take care -
uh...WHAT??? Let me recall your words..." or a system of equality where everyone has the bare necessities but have health, food, shelter, and education..." First of all my friend Cuba's health system is far from advanced. Hospitals are so old they're near the point of collapsing. If you're sick then beware, because you will have to bring your own food to the hospital as well as your own sheets for the bed... I wouldn't consider that a very good experience...
Food is rationed, so don't go saying "I'm hungry today I'm eating tacos" or "I want a happy meal from McDonalds" -no-. Food rationing is the same for all no matter what, even if it means you get to eat 1 banana per day. Perhaps you would like to be inprisoned? - Then there isn't an easier way than eating a cow...since you'll get more years by killing a human being...Does that sound like a good place to live???.....
When you say shelter...I'm sorry to say there is no shelter in Cuba...And believe it or not education in Cuba is not free...You must always attend communist parades and go to activities like a ritual in which they say "Viva Fidel" even if none of them really mean it. You also have to spend some years of your life picking up vegetables and fruits/etc. from the countryside in order to "help the revolution"...imagine doing that with 12-13-14 years of age...
Cuba is not rich, it is very poor, but it is because there arent many other countries willing to do trade without taking advantage of the poorer countries. Capitalism=inequlities.
Never the less there are alot more countries that are doing worst than cuba, at least Cuba looks after all its people the best it can, other countries dont care about anyone.
well, should I tell you what happens when you speak what you think? should I tell you that you get imprisoned and tortured just for critizicing the government? should I tell you that you won't be permitted to get a job if you ever get caught talking "bad" about the government?It is just a visiion, my friend, and that's what many don't see, Cuba's government doesn't care for its people, because if it did then they wouldnt suffer they way they have...
You are truly ignorant. Cuba had a democracy. The best it knew how. Does the USA today have democracy? Does France? Does Italy? In the USA they are still killing blacks and in France Arabs are persecuted. So democracy is very relative. In the 40s Cuba had a democracy...the best for that time.
Cuba never had a democracy - Batista was a tyrant, Fidel a communist pig. We in the U.S. dont have all the answers but we have a better system than most. The proof is that the whole world wants to be like us and people are always migrating here. Who migrates to Cuba? Evil wealthy dictators. France and all of Europe should throw out all of the Arabs or better yet; lets send them to live with you. Blacks are not killed in America. Blacks are a powerful group - The proof = Barack Obama.
that is exactly the point. the whole world cant be like the U.S. we have so much because the rest of the world has so little. People who are chasing something that is impossible. the whole world cant be rediculously wealthy. only small percentages of people in every country can be wealthy using the capitalist system. However we can all live more than comfortably if the globe worked together without selfish ends.
gracias Andy por esta pelicula y por darnos otra vision del "guerrillero heroico", que mas que heroico era un asesino, GRACIAS POR TU CUBANIA!!!!!!!!!!!
I agree with abelito384. De acuerdo contigo, gracias a Andy por mostrar la verdadera cara del Che, que mas que un heroe fue un asesino, y eso es lo que mucha gente no sabe, acerca de eso pueden ver: "Che Guevara, anatomia de un mito"
I feel quite sorry for Mr. Garcia. His work, Lost City, is but a cinematic ego trip. He demeans Mr. Cabrera Infante's novel with a poorly conceived and executed film. The movie is but a pompous show of himself, with no authentic feel, or real interest in the tragedy of the historic situation it attempts to depict. Surprisingly, I've found in all my Cuban friends and acquaintances to have the same opinion of his film. A better title should be, Lost Garcia. The final scene is rather pathetic.
Dear thomasdanner59, Hey, you've written very well. I haven't seen the film, though I very much want to. I get the feeling from things I've read etc, that ya may be right. More of a reminisce than a tragedy & so on. Hollywood seems to run on missed, deliberate and tragic trajectories. Any more insights? A great little post.
I think Andy is great I just wish that he didn't start in a Cadillac commercial and making it look like he's selling out. "if you're gonna fall, fall forward"??
Dear sports, good old Andy Garcia finally presents the real story of Cuba, regards Che the mass murderer firing squad fanatic & Tshirt print, Fidel the fiddler. A change from the venal lies of phony Hollywood lies & self serving decadent mediocre drivel of a lazy Western media. Viva Andy Garcia and Free Cubans all over the world.
Kudos to Andy for showing the truth about the Cuban revolution.
Of course, Lost City has not received the publicity it deserves. No one who remotely criticizes Castro is going to get much play in the pinko 'mainstream' American media.
Andy, thank you for not compromising your truth. Hollywood must be hell for someone as honest as you.
