Che Guerrilla
Posted on 27. Dec, 2009 by augustflanagan in Spain, United States
Plot: In 1965, Ernesto ‘Che’ Guevara resigns from his Cuban government posts to secretly make his latest attempt to spread the revolution in Bolivia. After arriving in La Paz, Bolivia late in 1966, by 1967, Che with several Cuban volunteers, have raised a small guerrilla army to take on the militarist Bolivian movement. However, Che must face grim realities about his few troops and supplies, his failing health, and a local population who largely does not share his idealistic aspirations. As the US supported Bolivian army prepares to defeat him, Che and his beleaguered force struggle against the increasingly hopeless odds. Written by Kenneth Chisholm
Why See It: A fascinating look into the last few months of the life of Ernesto “Che” Guevera, one of the most emblematic figures of all time.
Cast: Benicio Del Toro, Demián Bichir, Joaquim de Almeida

This movie is really interesting in comparison to Che – El Argentino. Both movies were made at the same time. El Argentino is about the successful Cuban revolution while Guerrilla is about failed revolution in Bolivia.
