But more pressing than that is Ike’s darker side–his connection with Miami’s mob boys–and financiers of the luxurious resort. They’ve ensured that acts like Sinatra and iconic families like the Kennedy’s keep coming back–and nobody, but nobody gets in the way of a lucrative deal and their very cushy playground. But of course, back-room mob deals don’t always end well.
Dead bodies in bathtubs, death threats dot the landscape as the latest, potentially fatal interaction looms on the horizon—Ike’s son, Stevie is, how should I say, hooking up with (head mobster) Ben, aka ‘The Butcher’s’ unhappy wife. Temporarily good for the lovers; not so well for a vindictive mafia hubby.
Troubles with unions, immigrants from turbulent Cuba and Cabana sex all come together, as nude divers swim in deep water, indoor tanks, cha cha lessons tap the dance floor and lovely ladies in one-piece, padded bandeau’s lounge poolside.
The cast of character’s, while virtually unknown to me, is well-chosen, both for it’s actors and the motley group that is quite feasible.
