How are you, G- and Little Timmy? I hope this finds you well. I went to watch "The Motorcycle Diaries" yesterday and thought of you. Have you watched it? I think you'll like it, for obvious reasons:
- It is completely in Spanish. (The only parts I understood without the help of subtitles were bits you taught me 8 years ago!)
- It captures life in South America in the 50's and is full of regular folks going about their everyday lives, like mechanics, nuns, miners, farmers, etc.
- It is about passion and justice.
- The nuns are funny.
- Awesome scenery.
- Machu Picchu!!!
What more can I say? I really liked the show - it was both thought-provoking and funny. The soundtrack was neat too - a lot drums in the background, as if the show was a precursor to something much bigger, building up to a climax outside the film.
Do you have a VCD player? If you do, I can send it to you when it comes out. Hmm... come to think about it, I don't think your country does VCDs, only DVDs. Aw well.
Love,
