The documentary Improper Conduct by Nestor Almendros and Orlando Jimenez-Leal evoked sharp and conflicting reactions in the United States. Here is a discussion of the film by Cuban director Tomas Gutierrez Alea, a letter to the Village Voice responding to Gutierrez Alea, and an initial original article in the Village Voice by Richard Goldstein. The three articles scanned from the original in August Cuba Si, Almendros No! Richard Goldstein wanted to know my opinions about this film to publish them in The Village Voice. We met for an interview and some of my views were published in a long article titled "Cuba SI, Macho No! On August 14, a response by Nestor Almendros appeared in this publication Extrem Young Small Disziplin Gay Boy obliges me to clear up some things. The first thing Almendros says is that I was obliged to attack the film "officially. It is true that I felt obliged to attack the film, but only because of those principles for which I have been and am capable of giving my life. Perhaps this will be difficult for people like Almendros to understand, and for so many others who long ago disengaged themselves from those principles which once seemed to sustain their lives. Improper Conduct is part of an official current of the U. The film feeds that current of opinion, which is well orchestrated and well backed by the official media. I find out, through Almendros, that "Comandante Castro did not approve of [my] last film,-- Hasta cierto punto. It Extrem Young Small Disziplin Gay Boy that Almendros is very well informed about what happens at the highest levels in Cuba. However, he also says that "following Castro's lead, the Cuban critics had to attack Alea and this film, even though the film had won the first prize at the last Latin American Film Festival in Havana. Perhaps the latter did not find out about Castro's opinion in time. Who knows No less puerile and ill-intentioned is his insistance that he can say, without fear of any kind, that he "very much admire s two or three of Alea's films under Castro. On the other hand, Alea cannot say or write in Cuba that he liked the film El Super. I have on hand a copy of an interview in Puerto Rico in which I say, among other things: " El Super seemed to me a very good movie; I would call it extraordinary, very revealing and very interesting This seems an appropriate occasion to explain that El Super is interesting because it offers a revealing picture of the Cuban exile community in New York: one of those Cuban families that abandoned their country after the triumph of the Revolution, taking advantage of the offer the U.

Crossover is a melodrama that follows a worn pattern and that tries to use Blades's songs as a hook. Leon Ichaso told me that after they made El Supe r many people labeled them as procommunists and that because of this they had to be careful not to follow that road. The story is lamentable, but revealing. And what can we say about the allusion Almendros makes to The Last Supper? That film has what Improper Conduct lacks: a historical focus on our reality. The Last Supper sheds light on the present because it's a parable about hypocrisy and the utilization of the noblest principles to exploit one's neighbor. Improper Conduct attempts to be a document through which one can get an "authentic" image of our reality here and now. But its lack of a sense of history and Extrem Young Small Disziplin Gay Boy social context determines its superficiality and turns the film into a revealing document about the human misery of its authors. How can Almendros speak of Cuba "deploy ing its military forces around the world"? Can Cuba really carry out a policy of aggression towards other countries? Doesn't this sound a bit exaggerated? If Almendros is so worried about the deployment of military forces, why hasn't he protested against U. Did he protest the recent intervention in Grenada? Has he said anything about the arms race unleashed by the current U. Why has Almendros, after so many years he emigrated in and after traveling a road full of professional successes, lent himself to a dirty game of such dimensions? It's significant that at this very moment, coinciding with an aggressive policy by the U. It's obvious that most of these people have nothing better to sell and that they try to make a career out of their anti-Cubanism. This is not exactly Almendros's case—he already made a career and is legitimately well-placed in that world. However, in his film, almost all these characters are gathered, this time focusing their attacks against Cuba on the theme of homosexuality. Everything very well prepared.
