CHE battled 3 different U.$.-backed dictators (Batista, Mobutu, Barrientos) on 3 continents (N America, Africa, S America) ... to liberate humanity. He is the epitome of bravery, fearlessness, and courage.
In the last battle, it took 1,800 rangers to defeat Che's group of 21 men.
They already made a biopic about Stalin, made by HBO with Robert Duvall in the lead role. You should also checkout Downfall a German film about the last days of Hitler. No one walks out of those films punching the air thinking they have seen a film about a heroic figure. These films are an attempt (at times failed attempt) to understand the external and internal forces which drive and shape these extraordinary individuals who have shaped our history for good or for bad. Its the search for truth
Che and Fidel fought for the Cuban people and afterwards have set them free ... Through mass education, they have made it possible to have a better quality of life than any other Latin american country ...that is the kind of ideal fight that Che is known for.... now if some were evicted from Cuba during the revolution because they could no longer be wealthy land owners or casino owners then that's their loss ....Stop embarrassing yourself by calling Che a murderer... read books of history
I want to stay in America because I love it here, but will everyone else move out so I can enjoy it?
I meant the entire conflict in the middle east. The point its there are many many causalities in history.
@ 4:41 "Well... If this film makes a hundred million dollars, then I'll make it a third one" Which is the REAL motive why Hollywood'$ huge interest in sanctifying Che!
"Too often we excuse those who are willing to build their own lives on the shattered dreams of other human beings." Robert Kennedy 1968
@ElMataCHE Oh my god! It's incredible to see how far ideology can go. It looks like you don't realize cold war is over. Things are much more complex than that. There is no good side and evil side. Wake up! To understand history you'll have to be able think more than that.
and btw, Washington owned slaves, and was just a rich bourgeois land-owner.
the Che was marxist-leninist in the soviet line, therefore not a Maoist
Sodergberg's next biopic should be about Stalin?
Well, Oliver Stone made a film about the mass murderer George Bush, so a biopic about Stalin wouldn't be that far fetched.
Good idea.
the Che himself was a bourgeois intellectual. So were the majority the most famous Marxists, from Marx himself to Lenin and Mao
You know nothing of American history and the reasons for the American revolution. It was far, far more complicated than that. Thats like saying the war in Afganistan was fought to capture oil.
There's no oil in Afghanistan
