This film attempts to describe Guevara's journey around South America when he was about to graduate from graduate school and the changes he encountered on his thinking. However, the standard of the film is still to move the audience. On a level, without in-depth discussion, as a doctoral student of leprosy, Guevara went through the mental process and thought changes, and then resolutely strengthened the ideal of liberating the whole of Latin America and became, in my opinion, he. The most precious quality - internationalism, abandons the narrowness of nationalism. Of course, this choice was made as a last resort, because the audience for this film is still an ordinary audience who desires sensual pleasure. Who would be interested in Guevara's internationalist stance? So the film focuses on showing the ups and downs that Guevara and his friends encountered during the journey.

In my opinion, the result of doing so will not impress me with Guevara, a unique person, because their travel experience almost every traveler encounters, but it makes me feel about the travel experience. This thing is full of interest, their way of travel, their open-minded attitude to face the unexpected in the journey, their enjoyment of travel itself and the realm of enjoying life is what attracts me. This almost confirmed my idea of ​​traveling more. The key question is just to take the first step and let go of the burden. It doesn't matter how much money or time you have. The important thing is that your heart is free and unfettered. When I let go of the ideological burden, I also let go of the big practical burden, and go into battle lightly.

I have read a biography of Guevara before, "The Perfect Man", which basically described Guevara's life in detail. After watching it, I will have a more three-dimensional understanding of this film.

The Motorcycle Diaries quotes

  • Ernesto Guevara de la Serna: Even though we are too insignificant to be spokesmen for such a noble cause, we believe, and this journey has only confirmed this belief, that the division of American into unstable and illusory nations is a complete fiction. We are one single mestizo race from Mexico to the Magellan Straits. And so, in an attempt to free ourselves from narrow minded provincialism, I propose a toast to Peru and to a United America.

  • Title Card: [Opening] "This isn't a tale about heroic feats. It's about two lives running parallel for a while, with common aspirations and similar dreams." Ernesto Guevara de la Serna, 1952
