.....WE the cubans who like Reinaldo Arenas left the dictatureship of Castro's by watching this is like comunicating with Reinaldo;we all know what freedom means finally and we run ,and run away from our Cuba in a very sad and decadent way......but finaly like he said "I'm free and Cuba will be free some day"i can't stop but cry.........long live Reinaldo Arenas.
@799chema me encanto este poema desde que vi la pelicula en el cine, y pense yo tengo varios posters, hay forma de que me entere de los lugares que exhiben los posters polvorientos para que se los mande sin costo alguno. Saludos QUE VIVA CUBA!!!
He visto esta parte varias ocasiones, alentadoras escenas con una poesia de lo cotidiano, de lo urbano, de una aparente ordinariedad. Que nos recuerda que en aquellas cosas de apariencia insignificante tambien encontraras belleza.
El sabor de la letra, de la palabra y el sabor de la imagen. Grande Reynaldo Grande!
Yes, this movie I picked out along with a number of other unknowns in a video store. I have had some of my own poetry published. This movie is a huge discovery for me. I can't stop watching it, and I want to absorb as much of Reinaldo Arenas as I can.
its an amazing movie,the film music,especially javier bardem is fascinating, he is such a great actor,he makes the movie better than it already is. he plays his role with passion,it really goes into the heart
This is an awesome movie that I believe firmly established Bardem through his sensitive and powerful portrayal of Reinaldo Arenas. This film is a homage not just to Arenas but to Cuba and it's physical, spiritual and human beauty!
Closed... closed... closed...everything closed...I arrive and open the innumerable locks,run up the improvised stairwell.There she is waiting for me.I discover her,remove the canvas and contemplate her dusty and cold dimensions.I get rid of the dust and caress her.With the slightest brushes from my palms,I clean her back,her base,her sides.I feel desperate, happy,at her side,before her,I run my hands over her keys,and rapidly,everything is set in motion.The ta ta, the jingling,the music start...
Passing through the exploding streets,since the pipes are ready to give out passing around the buildings,we need to dodge,since they are falling onto us,between the hostile faces scrutinizing and sentencing us,between the closed establishments,closed markets,closed movie theaters,closed parks,closed cafés.Exhibiting already dusty signs (justifications) occasionally,CLOSED FOR REFORMS,CLOSED FOR REPARATION.What kind of reparation?When will this alleged reform end?
NO SE A QUIEN AMO MAS A JAVIER BARDEM O A REINALDO ARENAS.... I LOVE THEM SO MUCH.

Ah, Cuba. Not a second passes by that I don't miss you. My live has been incomplete since I left you.

One of the best movies I've ever seen. Amazing performance by Javier Bardem . The film created a new resurgence in Reinaldo Arena's body of work.

The walls expand, the ceiling disappears and, naturally, you float,
you float, float ripped apart, swept along,
elevated,
taken, transported, eternalized,
saved, for the sake of, and
for this minuscule and constant cadence,
for this music,
for this incessant jingling.
Truly beautiful.

This movie should have won several academy awards. It's ashamed that Hollywood is so politically biased.
