"Who knows what's gonna happen after Castro...."
Turns out it was just another Castro 😂😂😂
Goes without saying that the writing and acting is stellar as always, but the lighting is also excellent. Characters half in light, half in shadow. This helps focus attention and adds gravitas to already great scenes. It must have been a bugger to shoot though.
Oh yea, never-before-seen technology on this show for sure...
But how do they make it nighttime when they're indoors?! Night comes from space and you can't see space when you're indoors!
3:38 I love that look he gives her. It says "She's my daughter and I love her. She's also my Chief of Staff and I love her too. Some days I can't tell which part of me loves her more."
You got that precisely right!
goodness, lily tomlin was an amazing addition to this cast.
All I know is there's a moment here.
That is exactly what it is all about
This episode made me read Hemingway. 📚
I don't know if anything could make me read Hemingway, but I am considering it, because of this.
I've read some Hemingway. Old Man And The Sea is a great one to start with. For Whom The Bell Tolls is a must-read. Farewell To Arms is also on my list. Hemingway also helped write one of JFK's speeches.
I’ve never liked Hemingway. I don’t like his style. He wrote in a ‘newspaper reporter’ style. I didn’t enjoy the couple of books I read, and that was that. “A FAREWELL TO ARMS” is a wonderful movie, though. Helen Hayes and Gary Cooper.
@@UNIT294 We had to read "Old Man and the Sea" at school, the biggest deterrent to liking any author. If all the people who wanted the Harry Potter books banned had made them compulsory reading as part of English Lit. in schools they would have collapsed sales overnight.
@@Ohm_mega Harry Potter doesn't qualify as great literature. Nor does most Hemingway.
This and the thing with the Middle East were two examples of what was basically Barlett's hubris. Well-intentioned, sure, but there was still a sense of if HE could get it done going on.
Obama got the ball rolling on this finally… Trump rolled it back a bit. But there are cracks of daylight still. We should be normalizing relations in earnest. This embargo has been outdated for a while now.
Yea. Screw the 100,000 political prisoners in Cuban jails.
Normalization happens when the last Castro is dead, the prisoners are freed, & there an open & free multiparty democratic elections.
Not before.
That embargo destroyed our rice farmers whose greatest export market was Cuba, enthusiastic consumers of American-grown rice.
Also drove a pretty fat stake into the gut of the Cuban automotive industries, most vehicles over there being 60+ years old isn't for aesthetic reasons lol
Some say that's part of the reason Cuba finally sat at the negotiating table with the US irl, they needed the embargo lifted cause they were basically running out of spare parts
@noahbrown6970 My personal feeling is that if kennedy survived he would have rescended the embargo to cuba
@@elizabethdillon4945 big maybe.
Follow me. Understand the attacks. Defuse.
Knowledge is king😅
If anyone wants to read what really happened with the Castro government senator Patrick Leahy book.
Solid suggestion, thanks.
Kate. Shrouded in mystery.
worst character by far -- her policies were garbage and led to the firing of Leo
Damn she's tall.
Modern politics, and especially the overexposed USA ones, make me sick to my stomach. Don't mind governance and statesmanship , most of the time is thinking about getting your ass in or back in power, the rest of the time is thinking about how get money to do and from that.
This was one storyline I just couldn’t really buy into on the show - particularly the whole Kate & Leo connection.
The post-Sorkin seasons have some moments, but a lot of it is incomprehensible.
I only watched this clip for Allison Janney's hair. This episode was really, really bad.
I make a point of commenting when they upload these clips that post Sorkin was dogshit this dialogue is clunky and the worst character ever was Ryan Pierce
Did you know she almost exclusively wore wigs through the series? She talked about it on the WWW podcast.
As a Floridian I'm so disgusted with how flippantly they spoke about the Cuban American people and ignored the years of violence and cruelty that Castro caused them.
You mean those who helped the brutal dictator Batista to subjugate and exploit this fair Island and its people.
The anger is justified, the hate is justified, the fear is justified. But can you tell me what it’s managed to actually _accomplish_ in more than sixty years? For Cuba or for America?
@Sol-k9I’m not wealthy, right wing, or Cuban. So jokes on you, jackass
this is the worst episode ever.
It's bad, like most of the post-Sorkin seasons. We can quibble, but I think just about every episode of season 5 is worse than this one.
no, the worst episodes were all the camp david ones, especially Leo getting shut out and the fired -- oh and let's not forget Josh and Toby fighting
Castro didn't die until he was 90.
