The Motorcycle Dairies


Finally finished watching The Motorcycle Diaries today after 5 to 6 different sessions; most of the time while waiting for M2 or WL in the car. Which mean that I watched the entire dvd (almost) on the X-Trail dvd player.....very useful thing to have for those who need to wait for wife or girlfriend. ...I mean having a dvd player in the car. The sceneries are awesome....from the hills of Argentina to Bolivia & all the way north.

The synopsis - In January 1952, Ernesto and Alberto set out on a road trip to discover the real Latin America. Ernesto (Gael Graca Bernal) is a 23-year-old medical student specialising in leprology, and Alberto (Rodrigo de la Serna) is a 29-year-old biochemist. With a highly romantic sense of adventure, the two friends leave the their familiar Buenos Aires surroundings on a rickety 1939 Norton 500. Although the bike breaks down in the course of their eight-month journey they preserved in achieving their missions and what they saw impacted their beliefs especially Ernesto who later became a famous rebel....Che Guevara who led a rebellion in Cuba.
