Period of movie was not immediately after "The Bay of Pigs"

Rating: Null/10 (26 June 1999)

Just a correction to one of the comments. This movie was not immediately or about the period just after "The Bay of Pigs" The Bay of Pigs was in '61 or'62 as I recall. I don't have time to check at the moment. But in any case, it took place in 1980, when Castro let many people from the town of "Mariel"[ the majority of whom were good people] leave Cuba. But he was slick and opened up the prisons, letting out vicious criminals he could no longer feed, and sent them to the GOOD OLD Old USA. These criminal were called or referred to, particularly by law- enforcement, as "Marielitos" because they came from Mariel. As Joe Friday in Dragnet would say: "Just the facts, Mam. Just the facts."
