    into a film‚ especially if it is a personal diary of one of the most important people in Cuba’s history. Regardless of the content‚ a director and screenwriter must take in consideration the way that they are portraying a true story and how they accurate they are. If they stray too far away from the source material‚ the film becomes a fiction and unreliable. In Walter Salles’s case with his 2004 biopic about Ernesto “Che” Guevara the Motorcycle Diaries‚ he chooses to tell it exactly how Guevara did

Guevara’s discoveries of the poverty and social injustices within South America resulted in a disapproval of the social systems of Latin America and an obligation to bring change‚ while his discoveries of the sublimity of nature also resulted in a renewed appreciation

    Is there always a question you get asked but have no idea how to answer? One question that just about all motorcycle riders struggle to answer‚ is “why?” The question is almost inevitable and always followed by some horrific motorcycle accident that some person’s ex-brother-in-law’s best friend was in.

After some wandering eyes

Particularly‚ in chapter fourteen‚ I was intrigued
