I’m sure some Hollywood producer’s wheels are already turning on this one. Apparently there is some speculation that recent photos of the ailing (dead?) Fidel Castro, who has not been seen in public in many months, may have been taken using wax figures.
According to an A.P. report:
Fidel Castro looked frail but alert and even playful in a series of official photographs taken during a meeting with Brazil’s president on Tuesday, the first images of the ailing Cuban leader released in months.
Wearing a tracksuit and tennis shoes that have become his trademark since he fell ill, Castro is seen seated and grinning, his beard well- trimmed and his hair combed as he talks with President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva. In some images, Castro is seen playing with a camera.
The pictures were given to reporters as Brazil’s leader left Cuba…
Michelle Malkin asks, “Real, or Wax?”
