"THE LOST CITY" By Andy Garcia

A MUST SEE MOVIE. You will be able to see how History repeats itself. After almost a half-century of oppression and destruction of a country, we see how Latin America chooses to follow the same path of errors that make Cuba from the highest standard of living in Latin America in 1959 to the poorest and most oppressed one today.

I'm confused. Are you saying that the movie is?

a. a great movie worth seeing
b trash that is not worth seeing

Are you saying the movie is:

a. historically accurate
b. grossly inaccurate

[Obadiah]

Andy Garcia is a very brave man. He has staked his career on this movie. No doubt Hollywood will now scorn him. This movie shows the real Castro and the real blood thirsty Che.

I have been looking forward to seeing it.

But it hasn't been in the Twin Cities area yet - that I'm aware of.

Read beyond the first sentence of the article.

Garcia did not kiss Castro's butt which, to the film critics that lionize the likes of Michael Moore and idealize Communists countries they never have to live in, that is unpardonable sin.

"Garcia – that cinematic bomb-thrower — has seriously jolted the mainstream media’s fantasies and hallucinations of pre-Castro Cuba, of Che, of Fidel, and of Cubans in general. In consequence, the critics are unnerved and disoriented. Their annoyance and scorn are spewing forth in review after review. "

nikos ... you must tell me who wrote these two part questions for you. For certainly anyone who can construct this type of query is capable of reading the article above and knowing the answers.

So I must surmise that you did not read the article. Now let me ask you:

a) did someone write these questions for you? (if so who?)
b) are you too lazy to read the article

Inquiring monds want to know.

[Michael.SF.]

a. and a.

It's got some good stuff on Che. He was a big phoney.

I hope the Cuban exiles and other Americans who know the truth turn this movie into this year's "Passion of the Christ," with huge box office figures.

Um, there is an "Ann Coulter" rule for any thread mentioning Andy Garcia. Please comply.

Nice job on the content, too. :)

FReeper trivia: Garcia is a cojoined twin, whose brother/sister wasn't developed and had to be surgically removed.

Here you go,

[pettifogger]

Why, thank you, Obadiah! That is one of my favorites.

To HR: Thought you might be interested in this, my FRiend.

My favorite pic of Che...

[Dqban22]

Yes, it is a great movie worth to seeing

and yes, is historically accurate.

It portrays the horrors of Bastista's dictatorship as well as the crimes against humanity of Castros'Communist genocide regime.
