...Because while our teachers probably don’t have two classes in a row, we often do, and getting from Sever to Harvard Hall takes time, dammit! Especially when you have to print out a paper first, and also pick up coffee in order to stay awake, and also stop and talk to people you meet along the way. Those seven to 15 minutes are important...
...Girl's got pipes. She does sing just a little bit in the episode where she plays a backup singer. I'd love her to sing more, but apparently this isn't just my playground, I do have to tell responsible stories. She can't sing in every episode. Dammit...

Given the expanse of Peter Buchman's script, Soderbergh must have figured he had a story that would take 4 hours to tell and, dammit, that's the movie he'd show here. So the running time is not the problem of this honorable, doomed effort; it's that so many scenes are repetitions of earlier ones. Che has to instill military discipline in his ragtag rebels in Cuba, then in Bolivia; in both places...
