Yesterday I saw "The Motorcycle Diaries" in an avant-première. It was lovely. First, before being any ode to Ernesto Guevara, this is a film about a beautiful friendship experienced through a trip across gorgeous South America. Each scene is a pleasure to watch.
Now about the Che... yes there are the beginnings of the populist leader, the ideal charismatic future revolutionist. But mostly, it's just as his friend Granado says, living "our lives acting consistently according to our convictions". Now that is a hard one to argue with, no matter how controversial a political figure Che Guevara might be.
I think this is worth a watch.

why I decided not to post a comment:
because I thought that no one will post anything after me anyway, and my comment won't lead anywhere, since no conversation or exchange of opinions would be engaged.
