MIAMI — The world movie premiere of "The Mambo Kings," the story of two Cuban musician brothers who seek fame and fortune during the 1950s, will launch the Miami Film Festival this year.
Miami Film Festival will open with 'Mambo Kings' premier
"If ever a movie and a city were meant for each other, this is it," said Nat Chediak, director of the annual festival. "The film is flush with the feel of 1950s Havana."
The screenplay was written by Cuban-born, Miami-reared Cynthia Cidre, a University of Miami graduate, and the movie includes performances by Latin music legends Tito Puente and Celia Cruz.
Starring Armadie Assante and Antonio Banderas, "The Mambo Kings" is based on Cuban-American writer Oscar Hijuelos "1990 Pulitzer Prize-winning novel "The Mambo Kings Play Songs of Love."
Desi Arnaz Jr. plays his bandleader-father, the late Desi Arnaz, who hears the two brothers play and invites them to perform on his hit television show, "I Love Lucy."
All three stars are expected to attend the screening on Feb. 7 in Miami.

NEW YORK — Crown Publishers Inc. will publish the controversial new book "The Sign and the Seal," by Graham Hancock, who claims he has discovered the location of the Lost Ark of the Covenant. The book is to be released on March 31.
According to the Old Testament, the Ark of the Covenant was a casket made of wood and gold, built to contain the two tablets of stone that were inscribed with the Ten Commandments and given to the prophet Moses. The Ark disappeared after the reign of King Solomon, nearly 3,000 years ago.
Graham Hancock, former East Africa correspondent for The Economist and author of several books on the Third World, identifies the location of the Ark, which, he says, "is not in Israel beneath the Temple Mount (as many think), but in a remote sanctuary chapel in the famine-striken province of Tigray in Ethiopia."
