News/Film - Lost City

Around this time last night I saw Cubans dancing across Miami and learned that Castro, for the first time in 47 years, had "temporarily" relinquished power to his brother. While it is still too early to interpret what this actually means for the "maximum leader", Cuba, and the future it is my hope that I will have the opportunity to be smoking Cubans in Havana sooner than later.

Anyway, the timing of this news was interesting, from my perspective, because I had just gone to see "The Lost City." By and starring Andy Garcia the film takes place in Cuba and follows a family during the revolution and was one of the best I have seen in recent memory. I'm not going to review it, but considering I had not even heard of it until my friend brought me to the theater to see it I thought I should get the word out. I suggest you at least look into it and if it looks like something you might be interested in seeing I strongly recommend it. And if that is not good enough for you I will add that Bill Murray is in it and (of course) steals the show.
