    Synopsis:
    Sean Connery and Brooke Adams lead an all-star cast in Richard Lester`s sweeping story of two old flames caught up in the chaos, fury and exhilaration of Cuba`s revolution. Robert Dapes (Connery) is a cynical mercenary who comes to Cuba at the request of one of Batista`s most corrupt functionaries, General Bello (Martin Balsam). Once there, he finds himself unable to ignore the brutality and depravity of the Batista regime - or Alexandra Pulido (Adams), a lover who is now married to a wealthy Cuban landowner. Surrounded by volatile guerrilla fighters and the human vultures present at all coups, he must come to terms with himself and his shifting views.
