Italian Classic movie credited with the revival of Italian Cinema and the launching of Giuseppe Tornatore to international fame. I personally did not find it up to the expectations I had. I streamed on Amazon Prime and the sound was very bad, it perhaps did not allow me to appreciate the acting.

This book was revealing of the extent by which the US and the Soviet Union engaged in advanced weapons programs with enormous destructive capacity. I found the testimonies and the depth of the journalism work awe-inspiring. I was surprised by how the level of communication between the top-leadership of both countries directly influenced each nation's commitment of resources to military buildup. A humbling lesson that even, and perhaps especially, when stakes are so high it is worthwhile to pick up the phone and openly discuss differences.
I personally always found this place to be overly rated. It is nice for an afternoon but hardly worth a long trip. It is merely a town with a small old town. The sunsets are very beautiful over the La Plata River and there might be occasional beautiful festivities for the whole family such as murgas and carnaval. I have been there a number of times.
