The Mambo Kings is a 1992 drama film starring Armand Assante and Antonio Banderas. Directed by Arne Glimcher in his directorial debut, the film is based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel The Mambo Kings Play Songs of Love by Oscar Hijuelos. The Mambo Kings tells the story of César and Nestor Castillo, brothers and aspiring musicians who flee from Cuba to America in search of the American Dream.
Armand Assante should have won an Oscar for his performance.

I saw an interview with antonio banderas today and he said that in this movie he dint speak english at all he said that he practics all the scrip word by word and even like that he dint know what he was saying that means that he is a good actor because in the movie it don't looks like he don't know waht he was saying (that's why I look for the movie on youtube, I was curios)
