It Was Just Wrong Mon Sep 22, 2025 17:35 | Dr David Bell The Covid response was not an error, and it was not the result of rushing to counter an unknown pathogen.

Cuban Chargé d'Affaires in Ireland, Teresita Trujillo, will introduce the film I Am Cuba has received universal acclaim and admiration from around the world as a true classic of world cinema.
"A classic ... absolutely astonishing. I Am Cuba is that rarity of rarities - a genuine hidden treasure. It puts to shame anything we're doing today." Martin Scorsese
"... for its sheer dazzling technique, and the glorious beauty of its monochrome cinematography, this Soviet-Cuban hymn from 1964 deserves impregnable classic status. Director Mikhail Kalatozov follows the progress of the revolution from the poolside decadence of Batista's Havana, the pauperisation of the tenant farmers, through to the student agitation, and finally the arrival of Castro's troops from their mountain stronghold in the east.
It is really miraculous work... Why do film buffs not jabber endlessly about these astonishing sequences? Why are they not endlessly quoted and pastiched in other movies? I Am Cuba is a gripping, if stylised, historical document.
I Am Cuba combines the high-minded severity of Russian cinema with the exuberance of Vigo or Fellini, and even anticipates the conspiracy-fear of Oliver Stone. A remarkable re-release." Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian
"... a technically astonishing mixture of optimistic Stalinist kitsch, agitprop and the epic Soviet style of the Twenties... a remarkable work." Philip French, The Observer
