I learned about the fun of Cuba from this song: the author was a 90-year-old man at the beginning of the band's establishment, started smoking cigars at the age of 5, and was about to have a sixth child; The gods offered rum and sprayed perfume; the old man who played the piano had his...

The film begins with American guitar master, musician Le Cood and drummer son Joachim Coud riding a motorcycle through the old town of Havana, the capital of Cuba, in 1998. There are long queues in front of state-run bakeries, rambling residents playing cards on the side of the road, and old...

#FilmCritic# "Leman Xiawanna" - 1999, Best Documentary at the European Film Festival, nominated for an Oscar. A solid music documentary. The recording objects are the old musicians of a Cuban band.

Finally, they came to New York and strolled the streets, "This is my first time in New York", "I was 30 years old last time, and now I am 80 years old", "I really hope my wife and children can come here too". The string of beauty these Cuban musicians say reminds me of the Burns documentary in...

Wenders' classic record of Cuban music "Buena Vista Social Club, Havana" Follow the old musicians to explore this place "free from revolution and poetry" and its music, which is slightly mottled and shabby but precipitation of life.

The recommendation I heard by chance, I liked this music album. I listen to music every day when I go to work and ride a bicycle. It may be a scene of a group of people who love music life dancing with the music. Familiar music adds more vividness. I can't like it more. I like everyone's optimistic...

When I was watching this, I thought of the Fados by Carlos Saura. It was a song and a song that connected the whole film. Carlos presented one Fado after another in a very romantic and beautiful way, wanting to show the whole film. The beauty of Fado.

And Wim Wenders used the whole film to describe...

"I'm not interested in how people move, but what moves them."                                                                    - How Pina Bausch     captures and defines a woman sexy? Sensual sexiness is something that is easy to be reduced and materialized, and memory gives you a symbol lazily:...

How did it all start? A friend who was a recording artist in London called and asked me if I would go to Cuba and work with him to make a Cuban music record involving farmers and West African musicians. It sounded like a new and good idea, and I said, Okay, my wife and I went to Harwana in the 70s...

The music documentary that made me cry, it's not easy to make a good documentary, but buena vista social club did it. It made me believe again in the power of records and the power of reality. The structure of the film is simple, combining footage of the band's performances with interviews with...
