ANDY GARCIA TELLS HIS CUBA STORY, AT LAST -- Cuban Star Tells It Like It Is About Fidel and Che!

About Guevara, Garcia says, "Che has been romanticized over the years, but there is a darker side to his story. People wear his T-shirt like pop art. They don't know who he is. He looks like a rock star, but he executed a lot of people without trial or defense" ....

Castro was "owned" when he fell of that little stage.

Garcia is one of my favorite actors. He's usually better than the film he's in, and if he's in it, I'll see it.

He also looks more Italian than James Caan ever did.

Yep, I remember going to the neighborhood doctor at night and telling her to please give me something for my sister's pain only to have the doctor tell me there were no analgesics.

Free stuff tend to be expensive in the most unexpected ways.

I know the story, and I'm salivating at the chance to tell it... That was a couple of years ago, at the Mausoleum to Che Guevara in Villa Clara, Cuba. I think Che Guevara was pulling his leg, trying to drag him to the tomb.

What we need is a conservative run studio, not necessarily producing conservative works -- but producing entertaining flicks without any politics, and willing to hire actors who will speak out against the Hollywood establishment (and their new 'blacklist').

You're talking about Icon Productions.

The movie sucks. Garcia directed it and he comes off like Barbra Steisand with all the lingering close-ups. It was shot over two years ago and had distribution set-up but the finished film was so bad the distributor used the standards clause to get out.

Nothing to do with politics.

Che contemplated the genocide of the USA by way of nuclear war. Pure evil.

Well if you post Che, the obligatory pic is the infamous kicking back with the cigar pose ...

I just saw the oil platform in Che-ney's beret. As Grandpa would say, "me pone las tripas contentas" (my innards get happy) seeing that.

If Andy would run for mayor of LA, I would be all over his campaign.
