It is a pleasant enough film but probably won't go down in history.  Good enough acting and a great soundtrack but the real rough edges have been smoothed out.  It is all a bit of a fairytale compared to Balseros which I saw last year.

So, enjoy it on video.  I´m going off to find my Carlos Varela record with his great songs about La Habana.  More on him later.
