...still fond of her, and warned her in time to flee into hiding in nearby Camagüey province until Fidel simmered down. It was probably Raul who also cleared the way for her final trip to Mexico. Her ruse of making a "visit" was far too flimsy to fool anyone. She took along 21 bags...

John Ross as Albany and Thomas Weisbuch as Cornwall both perform well, but they are in demanding...
