Review of The Motorcycle Diaries (2004) by Babul M — 05 Feb 2009

Destined to be a lifelong classic in my home. Wonderful movie, one of the best. Great music, shots, story, acting. Forget the politics when you watch this movie. It's a coming of age movie - just a better one than I've ever seen before.

Sat my (16yr) daughter down to watch it and just explained it was a short story about what a difference a year can make in a young person's life. One minute you think you're going one direction, and then you suddenly find something that sends you off in the most unexpected way.

Thoroughly moving piece.
