Here is an honest video (about 8 min) explaining the modern-day fascination with Che Guevara and Mao in popular culture, and Hollywood specifically. I have never understood why people where Che tshirts, especially if they know anything about him. I did watch the Motorcycle Diaries (about Che's early years) and was sympathetic to the man at the time. However, the movie conveniently ends where Che's cruelty begins. I think it was Cicero who said something like "To not know what happened before you were born is to forever remain a child." I guess those who love Che and Mao simply reveal they are Peter Pans!
