Good film, good mambo
I didn’t expect to like this film, but I thought it was quite good. Latin music really isn’t my cup of tea, but it was good here, set the tone just right. Armand Assante was great as Cesar Castillo. I haven’t seen too much of his work, but I was very impressed. Antonio Banderas was pretty good here, not great. However, if it’s really true that he couldn’t speak English then, and learned his lines phonetically, then you’d have to compliment him on that. You really couldn’t tell. Maruschka Detmers was also very good in a low-key role. I’ve been a fan of hers since “Hanna’s War” Check that out if you haven’t seen it. The ending was just a little off, but overall this movie was very entertaining.

Utterly charming
Cuban brothers arrive in America with a suitcase full of songs, hearts filled with passion and a desire to make it big in the promised land. One is a bit more passionate than the other, who likes the simple life a little more and continues to miss the girl who stayed back home, not realising that his brother was forced to leave with him in order to save his life.

This tragic drama is one of the 90’s most underrated gems. Full of energy and tragedy, good performances and great songs. Armand Assante gives the performance of his career and Antonio Banderas makes a solid American acting debut.

At times the movie feels a bit rushed, it simply might have been even longer, giving more character development to the supporting actors, who are very good, Cathy Moriarty in particular. The era feels authentic enough and the recreation of the “I love Lucy show” is a real winner.

An utterly charming film. Highly recommended.
