Three Cubans

"... eminently fair and realistic look at Cuba" - Jack E. Anderson, Miami Herald

"Neither the Cuban nor U.S. authorities ... influenced the film. ... students evenly divided about whether it was pro or anti - Castro...one of the best films available" - Jane M. Loy, History Dept., Univ. of Mass.

In 1963 & 1964 Robert Carl Cohen became the first US filmmaker authorized by both the US State Dept. & Cuban Foreign Ministry to film the daily lives of the upper, middle, and lower economic class Cubans. Its 1965 screening as "Three Faces of Cuba" on over 100 National Educational TV (NET) affiliated stations led to violent protests by anti-Castro exiles, hearings before federal agencies, & non-inclusion by the NET in the usual distribution of its programs to the schools.
THREE CUBANS provides one of the best documentations of the early effects of Castro's revolution on the people of Cuba.
