The Motorcycle Diaries

A fascinating film, reliving Ernesto "Che" Guevara's motorcycle trip across South America in 1952. I was most impressed by Gael Garcia Barnal's portrayal of Ernesto, his compassion, and his rage building up throughout the journey.

Fabulous locales in Argentina, Chile, and Peru, including the Machu-Picchu site make a superb background the tale of a young man out to travel - to discover the world. Very much a must-watch film.
