This two and one half hour film tells the story of the impact of the Castro led insurrection in late 50's on a large and prosperous Cubano family living in Havana. If you made a face while reading that, this film is probably not for you. If you were intrigued, this Andy Garcia starrer and directorial debut is powerful and sweeping film. Bill murray and Dustin Hoffman add some color but the hand picked cast is the heart and soul of this very fine film.
