Mas de Motorcycle Diaries

So, I'm getting disturbed the more I read of the actual book. See, the movie doesn't just combine episodes: it changes the content to make Che look more heroic. Instead of Che getting drunk and trying to drag a married woman outside for nookie, the movie shows a saintly Che getting pulled onto the dance floor by said married woman who only pretends to be offended at Che's advances when her husband wakes from his drunken stupor. Right.

And the indigenous, Communist couple they encounter? The duo doesn't praise the itinerant Argentineans. They practically spit on the youths for having nothing better to do than travel "for travel's sake." I've still got 75 pages to read, so I'll let you know if any other egregious discrepancies come up.
