oh. if you look on the right of the film there on youtube, apparently the person that's put up the film, has 400+ other vids ... all from decades ago.. "the travel film archive" .. for anyone interested in looking at stuff like this.

Great video. Interesting spin about how American intervention allowed Cuba to be liberated from the 'tyranny' of Spain...resulting in the Cuban revolution that was designed to gain independence from the tyranny of the US!

That's a great video thanks!
Nice to see how great Cuba was when she was not under Communist rule.
Shame really maybe she would have been better off if she had stayed under Spanish rule.
What i mean to say is that under Spanish rule at least the Communists would have never got their hands on her or would they? Confused
