Ernesto's Voice

As I was reading about Che's adventure in Argentina I heard him speak in a strong voice. He seemed to be in control of the situation no matter what was going on. Him and his partner seemed calm at all times and never worried about anything. this is calming yet I also find it quite powerful. This confidence is reassuring. One part that showed this is when Che becomes sick during the travels. He simply stays for a while longer until he is healthy and with no worries takes the day to recover. the other part I remember is when Che simply pitches a tent on the side of the road because they could not find a place to stay. None of these problems were a big issues to them. They're confidence is utterly strong and almost confusing to a point. Why are they so ok with everything?
An interesting think about my reading was the way I interpreted the voice of Che. When I read I almost picture what is happening in my head, like a film. In this film Che is a strong voiced and very confident Spanish man. I could think of no better better to play this role then Antonio Benderas. The video attachment shows a scene of Antonio Benderas and his presence on screen, he displays strong confidence and also has a strong Spanish voice. Hopefully this can help you picture the novel a little better during your own reading.
