Heads of state have been known to have cats or dogs as cherished pets made famous by their masters. But Fidel Castro had a cow, dubbed Ubre Blanca (White Udder), that made the Guinness Book of Records yielding 110.9 liters of milk in a single day. Director Enrique Colina has become the pre-eminent chronicler of the revolution’s follies and his La vaca de mármol (The Marble Cow), the hilarious tale of the pampered mammal and her legacy, is a classic. When Castro sealed the island’s fate to the Soviet Union in a marriage of convenience, Cubans responded with their trademark irreverence, dubbing the stolid Russians bolos, bowling pins, hence the title Los bolos en Cuba y una eterna amistad (Bowling Pins in Cuba and An Eternal Friendship). As Colina points out, sometimes what matters most is not how history is written, but how it is erased.
