The motorcycle diaries

Lately, I had been watching many a movie that are really good. Most of them are English classics, not pretty sure of their release dates. Watching movies, an universal statement I always used whenever someone asked for my interests, likes or hobbies. Until recently I never bothered to find out what it means to be interested in something, thought "it is that one does most of the time". The interest gives pleasure, motivates to learn, explore and most importantly the satisfaction. This is known to every soul in this world, no more blogs needed to explain this. This is how I felt when I was watching movies these days. Screenplay, script and every frame of the movie are catching my eyes. Truly, watching movies is my hobby and spending some time on that these days. COOL!!!!

"The motorcycle diaries", one of the movies I watched recently. Movie is about two guys who have similar thoughts, the paths they take and where they end up with. The fascination towards the open roads let them dream about traveling the entire SouthAmerica and contribute something to the society. They are doctors and treat leprosy patients.

The reason I wanted to mention about this movie here is, I have similar dreams of traveling, hitting the roads and rip through them. Meet people and explore. The movie is a package of things one will admire and make lot of memories. "Let the world change you and you can change the world" is the apt caption of the movie.

Its truly a must watch.

OMG!!!
dude... in case u didn't know!!(cos I don't see even a word abt the hero, mentioned in the post!!

'The Motorcycle Diaries" is the adaptation of an autobiography by the same name.. of one of the most inspiring leaders ever lived in this world!! "Ernesto Guevara de la Serna"... the great 'Che Guevara'!!!
It was this road trip that changed his life forever and created such a leader in him!!


I've read the book twice or so and watched this movie probably 3 times!!
but i'd say the movie didn't do as much good as the book did!! though the fact is undeniable that it reaches thousand-fold of masses in astonishing rapidity and influence!!

let me know more abt the movies u watch!!

and, abt the road trip.. I'M GAME!! :-)
