Motorcycle Diaries coming out soon. Anyone heard anything about it?

Edited on Mon Jan-10-05 02:19 AM by WMliberal

It's based on first-hand accounts of Che Guevara and a friend of his going on an 8,000 mile trip on a motorcycle in the early 1950's.

I haven't heard of any reviews of it yet.

OK so... on edit: I'm a tard. This movie has been out for a while. Word of it is just now FINALLY reaching this corner of the red-state I'm in.

6. I believe it has had limited release

when it first came out I either had to go to Cambridge, Ma or NYC if I wanted to see it . I live in CT. I haven't payed attention much to see if it had opened in more places since. I will wait and rent it.

5. yeah, looked up some more info on it...

It's widest release was only a few hundred theaters nationwide. I'll have to hope Hollywood Video or Blockbuster pick it up in February.

8. Excellent film! Beautiful scenery!

Not much focus on what would become of Che, but you see through his eyes the experiences that influenced him.
Y Gael Garcia Bernal es muy excitante!
