...through a tortured scene involving the Concert of Europe without seeming too much of a cliche. Richard Frank walks a similarly thin line as Geoffrey, the bisexual director who proclaims that "love is love, gender is merely spare parts." Frank, entertainingly gay (no pun intended) as he and McMurtrey cavort around the house, is also capable of pulling off quite serious moments in the second...
Varadero Beach, where rich gringos used to cavort in the days of the Batista dictatorship, is once again a clean, green ghetto for foreigners. Tourism is supposed to be the country's short-term salvation, but it also accentuates the difference between those with dollars and those without.

They cavort on a fantastical playground that comes complete with a swing, a seesaw, a sandbox, a basketball hoop and, of course, an electric train set. The visiting Princess of France and her ladies in waiting find the men's actions, particularly their vow not to see women, highly amusing. Needless to say, the men immediately fall in love with the women and decide to forget their vows and begin wooing. Accompanied...
