Movie Reviews of El Che - Investigating a Legend
Movie Review: Che: example for all generations.
Summary: 5 Stars
I first started to hear Che's stories from my father who went to Medical School at University of Buenos Aires. Che was a couple of years ahead an graduated earlier but still my father met him.
I haven't watched this DVD but I have read many books about Che, the Cuban revolution, about his life before the Cuban revolution, and I also went to Bolivia, to Vallegrande and La Higuera, the place where Che was killed. You would be surprised how many locals you can meet there (peasants, teachers, etc...) that can tell you stories of Che doing voluntary work, paying for his medicines, not stealing them as many have said. Only if you have studied his life and analized the legacy and feeling to this day his strong presence, would you ever be capable of experiencing the truth.
But you still have people talking without knowing a single fact. How daring it is to be so ignorant to speak about Che when you live in a country that is full of politicians that are assassins and when you can tell they haven't learnt a single piece of history? They have learnt about this country giving "preventive medicine to the world" -as they disrespectfully refer to their intervention in foreign countries-, by constantly violating someone else's homeland. Well... ask that to ignorant and pathetic souls like James Chiu or Delawanna below... I believe they like to have the "pack" mentality because they do not remotely dream of understanding what is to stand up for themselves and have an opinion.
Che was an honorable human being. He was born from an aristocratic family and gave up any confort and position to fight for his ideals. A kind of person these people cannot ever dream of being.
I admire Che and Fidel for having the pants to fight for the control of their own lifes and people of Latinamerica, despite considering that socialism is not the ideal economic model.
