"I`m getting uncomfortable."

No, those weren`t the words of one of my houseboys after I lost the belt to my shorty robe.

No, it was actually from the great mumbler of our time Benicio del Toro, star of the 28 hour long epic "Che," after being peppered by questions from folks who remembered, factually, the suffering at the hands of the newly deified revolutionary/homophobe.

According the Washington Times, after a screening of the film, Benicio granted an interview to the foreign press, usually a mass of celebrity ass-kissers wrapped in a cocoon of anti-Americanism. So imagine del Toro's surprise when – whoa – some old man actually pressed him on the real history of Che: that he was a heartless killer, a creator of forced labor camps and a Stalinist who relished executing dissenters without trial or even much thought.

But who needs to know that crap! It gets in the way of the story, as Benicio admits: "we have to omit a lot of stuff about his life." But the actor did get upset, finally - over the sheer rudeness of hearing the phrase "concentration camps," used by a man who was really in one of them. It was then the actor knew it was time to leave.

So he left. He walked out of the press interview, not unlike many of the people who went to see his film.

Half-way through.

It's a shame that in real life, Cuba had to stay through the end.
