NOMINEE:  "The Motorcycle Diaries" a 2004 film by executive producer Robert Redford and acclaimed Brazilian director Walter Salles.  It is a story about two young men (one a biochemist and the other a medical student in his last year of med school) who took off on a motorcycle -- with about $15 and little more than the clothes on their backs -- from their home in Argentina to travel 8,000 miles in four months " to explore a continent" they "had only known in books." 

They took the trip in 1952 and the film's cinematography is whatever the word is beyond excellent -- superior.  The use of sepia tone and integration of the actors interaction with real-life people into the film all along their journey across Argentina through Chile, Peru, Columbia, and on to Venezula was a brilliant use of every minute and mile it took to create this work of art.  The two climaxed their mid-point with work at a lepers colony in Peru showing (for the 3rd or 4th time) their compassion and unity with every person regardless of status and position in society.  The landscape, hills and mountains, were majestic and magnificent. 

Not knowing the history, I did not realize that I was watching the life story of Alberto Grando and Ernesto Che Guevara de la Serna.  The film really touched my heart and regardless to what anyone ever thinks about someone after they are grown and old, we should always remember that there was a time when they were loved by someone, touched by someone, held by someone, meant something to someone, loved somebody, touched somebody's heart along the way.
