Comment

Needs to be moved to Cuban cinema, which is a much more commonly used name than "cinema of Cuba". Can an admin please help?--Sonjaaa 15:06, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Put it on Wikipedia:Requested moves. -- Beardo 03:35, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Andy Garcia ?

How can Andy Garcia be relevant to Cuban cinema - he left Cuba when he was five. Surely this page is about cinema made in Cuba, not cinema made by Cubans in Hollywood / -- Beardo 03:35, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Lists

The actors are in alphabetical order by first name, the directors seem a mixture. What should we use ?

And are there really no actors in Cuba with their own articles ?

I have started one for Enrique Molina. I'll try a few more later. -- Beardo 13:34, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

Video clip

I'll leave it up to someone more knowledgeable than me to decide on, but about the section that says:

One of the most prolific and strong branches of the Cuban cinema in the last 40 years has been the documentaries and short-films. The documentary Now (1965) by Santiago Álvarez is often considered the first video clip in history. It combines a song with an uninterrupted sequence of images depicting racial discrimination in the U.S..

The link to "video clip" links to an article much more about YouTube-type internet videos and the like. I know that "clip" is used in Spanish to refer to what in English would almost exclusively be called a "music video" - maybe it should link to music video instead. Incidentally, I don't want to detract from Cuban artistic achievements (I love Gutierrez Alea's movies), but if music video was the intention, wouldn't Scopitones have been slightly earlier in pioneering the format? --STLEric 16:45, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
