A taste of Cuba

Terry's photos from Cuba.  Also,  Jim noticed that YouTube has the entire film "Our Man in Havana" based on the novel by Graham Greene.   We've seen it quite a while ago but will be fun to see it again.


From Wikipedia:
The film was shot on location in Havana, just two months after the overthrow of the Batista regime, and on 13 May 1959 Fidel Castrovisited the film crew when they shot scenes at Havana's Cathedral Square.[5]

Our Man in Havana is a 1959 British film shot in CinemaScope, directed and produced by Carol Reed and starring Alec GuinnessBurl IvesMaureen O'HaraRalph RichardsonNoël Coward and Ernie Kovacs.[2][3][4] The film is adapted from the 1958 novel Our Man in Havana by Graham Greene. The film takes the action of the novel and gives it a more comedic touch.
