I think I will go away, but I still wander in place

I have always wanted to have a feeling of being on the road. I imagine myself in a distance, somewhere I don’t know, maybe just on the road. In fact, I never go far, just walking back and forth in a fixed way every day. There is not much distance. I am a person who doesn't have much courage. "I didn't go on the road because of other reasons." I always deceive myself. I just don't want to face the unknown. There is hope and nothing else. They are "dauntless", what about me?

Annie has been running away too, don't know why, every time I feel that she has found the answer she was looking for on the road. Enesto and Alberto did not leave to find any answers at the beginning, but to sway their youth. It was just an adventurous journey. That was the direction they chose to travel through Vietnam and America to reach faraway places. Before they knew it, they also found their own answers and their own future. Both future dreams, roads, or other things are all unknown, but even so, they are obtained.

As mentioned above, I am a person without courage. I just imagined that I might have the feeling of being on the road, watching their journey, hoping to get their experience. But that's impossible, everyone has their own purpose on the road, and I have no purpose on the road, I just want the answer. Desire to find your purpose on the road.

In the last leprosy treatment facility, Enesto’s sincere feelings are really unforgettable. In fact, during the journey, he was always so obsessed with his beliefs, and did not act against his intentions because of the path. matter. And what he crossed on his birthday was not only the Amazon River, but the distance between people. Each time his asthma is just an illustration of the effort he can make. In fact, I have never known what Che Guevara has in his life, in fact, these are not important in this film, what is important is the meaning of life this journey gave him.

Two people get different answers on the same road. I think that different people will get different results when they go on the same road. Just as life is a journey.

The biggest shortcoming of the film is that the plot is too short to portray Guevara. It is thin and the tension between the plots is not united.

I think I also wrote very messy. But this is just an individual experience.

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
