| Andy Garcia's Thought Crime |
| 2006-05-01 |
| By Humberto Fontova Andy Garcia blew it big-time with his movie The Lost City. He blew it with the mainstream critics that is. Almost unanimously, they're tearing apart a movie 16 years in the making, which Garcia both directed and stars in. In this engaging drama of a middle-class Cuban family crumbling during free Havana's last days, Garcia insisted on depicting some historical truth about Cuba -- a grotesque and unforgivable blunder in his industry. He's now paying the price. Earlier, many film festivals refused to screen it. Now many Latin American countries refuse to show it. The film's offenses are many and varied. Most unforgivable of all, Che Guevara is shown killing people in cold blood. |

| #5 Dang, should have been Liberals just think that Che Guevara is a line of designer T-shirts. My bad. At least I didn't mistakenly put one of my "special bookmarks" in the link. |

| #1 Che Guevara is shown killing people in cold blood. Thats the problem with Liberals - they cannot deal with the truth, so they try to change the wording and context until they have stood the truth on its head. Che goes from cold blooded executionar of the revolution to some sort of labor hero in latin america. People are so gullible. |
