Cuba and the Cameraman Reviews
The Daily Dot
Kahron Spearman
He makes no bones about his leanings, and make no apologies, which lend significantly to the documentary. Whatever your politics, it's a stunning achievement.
Common Sense Media
Brian Costello
Interesting but long docu on Cuba under Castro.
indieWire
David Ehrlich
The film's lifeblood can be found in its connective tissue, as Alpert continually revisits the same memorable assortment of Cuban peasants and city folk.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
In part because of its political blind spots, "Cuba and the Cameraman" is captivating. (Whatever you think of Mr. Alpert's perspective, it's interesting.)
Los Angeles Times
Sheri Linden
But it's the salt-of-the-earth Borregos, a trio of farmer brothers and their sister, who give the film its most involving through-line, and its heart.
Hollywood Reporter
Neil Young
... Cuba and the Cameraman is sustained by the strong bonds of trust which the gregarious [director Jon] Alpert has evidently been able to maintain with Cubans from various echelons of this theoretically classless society.
Film Journal International
André Hereford
A veteran documentarian's 40 years of charting the changing fortunes of Cuba and its people yields an informative and personal portrait of Castro's nation.
