Just been to the showroom to see this film about Che Guevara's student days.

Has anyone else seen it?

yes, i saw it a couple of weeks ago and i enjoyed it very much. it's one of the few films that i enjoyed more than the book, although it's probably worth remembering that che's diary probably wasn't intended to be a book anyway.

Perhaps/perhaps not.

Although the book has used informaton from a book by Che`s travelling companion Alberto Granado who is still I think working in Cuba as a Dr.

Listened to an intrerview on Radio 4 with Walter Salles which was fab!

Looking forward to catching it soon.

"The Motorcycle Diaries is not the final excursion into the life of Ché Guevara. Ché will be directed by Steven Soderbergh and is rumored to star Benicio del Toro as the Argentine revolutionary."

Cool.
