Please help me out: Best Cuban Revolution (the ongoing one) films or TV/mini-series of all time. Is it Soderbergh's Che double feature.. ? Facto Jun 22, 19:51

it's not a revolution, it is marxism=failure, everyone is starving kboxr88 Jun 22, 20:19

Wasn't asking for political opinions at all, dude. {nm} Facto Jun 22, 20:42

Impressive list, thanks. It's got "The Good Shepherd", "Che" and "Thirteen Days", but is missing lots of others. Facto Jun 22, 21:11

oh yeah, I've seen MDiaries....I have a friend that refuses to watch it (because of Che) and we argue about the film all the time. {nm} lobogotti Jun 22, 21:13

I've met plenty of those types. I used to debate a lot of them in a FB group called "Che was a mass murderer, and your t-shirt s*cks". Facto Jun 22, 21:24

Btw, perhaps I layed the ground for some misunderstandings. By "ongoing revolution", I meant to separate it from Cuban revolutions prior to Facto Jun 22, 21:03

Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights? {nm} RazorHawk Jun 22, 20:23

I believe my sister and mother enjoyed that one together... They are both completely uninterested in history, geopolitics etc. Facto Jun 22, 20:45

X-Men: First class, even touched upon this to some extent, although more the "Thirteen Days" part of it, than the revolution before and unti Facto Jun 22, 20:47

I Am Cuba [1964] & Memories of Underdevelopment [1968] SakowskyBrothers Jun 22, 22:47

Excellent advice, thanks! A minor note: The missile crisis was in October 1962 (relevant for X-Men: First Class timeline), so 6 years before Facto Jun 22, 23:39

I know, it's not that it took that long to make it took that long to be released considering the politcal climate at the time. {nm} SakowskyBrothers Jun 23, 10:04

Great choices ! -- I would also suggest watching Wim Wenders' documentary Buena Vista Social Club (1999)... joeoftexas Jun 23, 07:14
