Motorcycle Diaries

Abstract: A 3 page essay that comments on the mis-en-scene elements and cinematography of Walter Salle's Motorcycle Diaries (2004), which portrays an episode from the life of Che Guevara, as a young man. Guevara's politics do not play an overt part in the film. Rather, the focus of the film is to show how his political attitudes developed. As this principal theme of the film is unstated by the characters, it is largely conveyed through mis-en-scene elements, and primarily by the cinematography. No additional sources cited.
