Friends:

Here's a link for Andy Garcia's new film "The Lost City". It's a movie about the Cuban revolution, without Hollywood's typical pro-Castro slant. Andy wants us to send it out to all of our friends to spread the word of the film's upcoming limited release. As many of you know, he had a lot of difficulty getting Hollywood to take it on. This film is very a very important piece telling "our story" for the first time. If you can forward this poster and release information out to your friends, your support will be greatly appreciated.

"The Lost City" opens on April 28th, 2006, in Miami, New York, New Jersey and Los Angeles. It will open in Washington D.C., Chicago, Minneapolis, Seattle, San Francisco and San Diego in the following weeks.

Interesting. Hadn't heard of it, but will keep my eyes open to see if it opens in a theatre nearby.

Looks interesting - I'll have to get it on video, though, because of babies.

Ping, rrrod.

Andy Garcia and Gloria Estafan are both anti-Castro Cuban-Americans. I respect them as artists and as patriots!

Well, I hope that all Freepers who live in those areas will go out and support the movie so we can get it out here in the hinterland.

I imagine one can be anti-Castro and anti-Batista at the same time.


in my book, both were pigs.

I learned quite a bit about Andy Garcia from an article in a cigar connoisseur magazine. He's had a very interesting life. I always liked his onscreen performances too, so this is a movie I would definitely watch.
