Not just another movie

Dirty Dancing Havana Nights has become a popular movie and rendition of the older movie. It shows the different aspects of the Cuban culture and the revolution that was going on in the late 1950s. The movie discusses a time when Castro was forcing all Americans to leave their country and an American girl and her family face the struggle of leaving a life of luxury or trying to fight the potential overturning of a government and the expected chaos that was to follow. Although this movie was made as a source of entertainment, it also gave me more of a sense of Cuba. Throughout the movie we were able to see different aspects of the culture, from dance, to dress, to food. It also gave me more insight into the radiant and bold Cuban culture.
