Juan Cristóbal says: – The quote of the day comes from the Venice love-fest between Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chávez and Oliver Stone:
“I used the real man,” Stone said. “I hope you realize how dynamic he is in the movie. What I like about the film is you see how sincere he is on camera. You don’t see a guy who is a phony. He’s not a dictator.”
Stone’s advisors for the film? Major PSFs Tariq Ali and Mark Weisbrot. Enough said.
