Che flick panned in Review

The title is excellent:

Cuba libre is just a drink

But, watching Che, the latest, longest effort, I kept flashing to Bananas, Woody Allen’s spoof of a hairy guerrilla who emerges from jungle insurgency to wow crowds in New York...

I've seen "Che, Part I" and let me tell you, it was chilling to watch those criminals being humanised by Cuban humour.

There's this part where Camilo Cienfuegos is teasing a man about being a "ventriloquo" but he misunderstands the word as "veinte culo".

Y no le gusta.

Cheers,
Victoria

Cuba Libre (Rum and Coke) now goes by the name of "Mentirita."
