2005/06 Season

THE MOTOR CYCLE DIARIES

UK/USA/France 2004 (15) - 125 minutes
Subtitled

Directed by Walter Salles

Ipswich Film Theatre - 9 January 2006 - 7.30pm

Travel through South America in the 1950s with cousins Ernesto and Alberto, two newly qualified doctors. This is no ordinary road trip: Ernesto meets the people of his continent and his social awareness starts to fire on all cylinders - unlike the motorbike. The young Che Guevara realises he is born to fight injustice.

AUDIENCE COMMENTS: Beautifully filmed and felt very authentic, although how can you fall off a motorbike so many times and remain intact; A powerful film which held me spellbound. Will be hard to beat this season. First class; Mr Redford spent his money well. I thought this was to be a boys' film about motorbikes. It was so much more. It makes me want to go off travelling as soon as possible. Another excellent evening; Fan-tango-tastic. The rawness of the cinematography enhanced the amateur dramatics of the intrepid heroes. Shows South America as it still is today. Left me wanting to join the revolution.
