"The Motorcycle Diaries does a great job of sketching out the character of Ernesto Guevara de la Serna, without any pandering to our knowledge of who he will become. There are no cheap shots and only one 'Che' joke-to explain the origin of the nickname, which is a play on the Argentinian accent.

💡 Did You Know?
There are two scenes that were improvised during the filming process.
The scene when Ernesto and Alberto are riding in the snow was not in the screen play. When the crew arrived to the filming location they faced with extraordinary weather conditions. However it was their day off they decided to go to the mountains and shoot this scene.
The scene in Cusco was filmed because the little "tour guide" boy asked the film crew if he can show them the city. They said yes and brought the camera as well. This is the way how they found the women with whom Ernesto and Alberto is talking in the Cusco scene.
