Wednesday, September 2, 2009 -
Sunday, September 13, 2009

An idealistic political go-getter finds himself embroiled in one of the most infamous political events of American history as he sets out to do good "for God, for country and for Yale."  Featuring iconic figures such as Fidel Castro and Richard Nixon, this comic tale poignantly exposes the pitfalls of youthful innocence and its blind faith in a newly elected president, in revolutionary fervor and in the warm stirrings of romantic first love. "Rum & Coke" offers an unforgettable glimpse behind the scenes of a defining moment for one young man and two nations. Adult language and themes.
