Dzeguwala

When Xiao Yao lent me "Blue Sea and Blue Sky", she recommended "Motorcycle Diary". She said that you can watch it, it is also a very classic film.
Unfamiliar film, and seemingly unfamiliar subject matter. What came to my mind was "Kino's Journey" and the term "road movie" I saw in a movie magazine. It is generally foreseeable that travel will have extraordinary meanings for travelers, otherwise this story would not be necessary to tell.
Without reading any introduction, I went straight to the topic. The Chinese translation of the Taiwan version (?) made it a little difficult for me to read, but it also made me completely unaware that this film, which wrote about the passionate youth and the self-examination and sublimation of the situation of the rich and the poor in South America and the whole world at that time, was about a movie. Such a familiar yet unfamiliar object. I didn't realize that this was a film with a background until he raised his glass, until he waved his oar and waved goodbye to the other side, until his melancholy and romantic eyes stared at an ideal world.
"Czeguwala". This is how it is translated in Chinese subtitles.
"It's not a heroic deed, it's a brief parallel of two lives. They share common aspirations and dreams. Are our visions too narrow and hasty? Are our conclusions too inflexible? Maybe. Wandering America, for me Bringing unexpected changes. I am no longer me, at least not the same me."
Ah, so it is, so it is.

ps, I really like the narrative method of the film. Their series of experiences on the journey, the connection and switching of scenes, seem to jump, but they are full of imagination and fun. (Reminds me of "Kiujiro's Summer", it's so interesting) The director doesn't need to explain what he wants to tell in the language and situation of the direct preaching, a stare, a silence, a broad perspective, everything is interpreted by the audience.

    When the 23-year-old Guevara got on a motorcycle and was about to start a casual trip around South America, he was looking forward to the unknown scenery and the wine and beauty during the journey. When he ended this journey, he was in his heart. What is pretending is the entire Latin American people. There is indeed a so-called great personality in this world, with deep sympathy for the suffering people, abandoning all the advantages, and pursuing the equality and happiness of others. It’s great to be young. Life is full of possibilities and unknowns. An inadvertent decision is enough to completely change one's life, and he has the courage to choose the road with few people.

    When my footsteps have crossed thousands of rivers and thousands of mountains, I am no longer me. Only those who have suffered and struggled at the bottom can understand that the world is suffering. He must have a pair of discerning eyes to experience it firsthand, making him enough to give up everything that ordinary people dream of having. The magnificent scenery of South America can make people's trip worthwhile.
