It's difficult to imagine a figure more polarizing than the subject of Steven Soderbergh's ambitious new biopic. Mention the name Che Guevara, or flash a picture of one of the endless variations on Alberto Korda's iconic image of the revolutionary leader, and you're bound to get an earful. But most reactions are of the knee-jerk variety, and are based more on reputation than history. Blind devotion or blind rage tend to be the reactions he inspires. Soderbergh's surprisingly journalistic treatment of the facts of Guevara's life is still likely to inspire vigorous debate, but from a more complete—and less black and white&mdashstarting point.
