Cuba

In 1959, British mercenary Robert Dapes (Sean Connery) thought it would be a payday like any other when he came to Cuba to prepare Batista's forces for the rising insurrection. Once there, though, he wasn't prepared for the corruption of the regime, the spirit of the revolutionaries, or the presence of an old flame (Brooke Adams) married to an abusive landowner (Chris Sarandon). Richard Lester's lush historical adventure also stars Martin Balsam, Denholm Elliott, Jack Weston, and Hector Elizondo. 122 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono; trailer gallery.
