Because of the summer heat in Spain, environment conditions imposed
to the production team of Guerrilla for the filming in Los Navalucillos
are the following: no smoking and no lighting fire.
June 23, 2007
Ernesto Che Guevara “will resurrect” in Los Navalucillos from
the 17th of July on, the date of the beginning of the filming of
Guerrilla. This week, the producer began to select in Talavera
about 500 extras who will participate in the film.
In Los Navalucillos, a locality in Toledo of almost 3,000 inhabitants
located in La Jara, the first details about the film are
beginning to be known. In some establishments of the town there
have already been members of the production examining
the area at great length, and some neighbor has seen nonhabitual
vehicles by the place of La Puílla. Morena Films, the company which
makes the feature, has chosen this area because of its similarities
with the mountain range of Bolivia. A guerrilla camp will be
constructed in La Puílla, close to the Pusa river. The date scheduled
for the beginning of filming is the 17th of July. It will last about ten
days and it will mobilize two hundred people, according to
comments given to a weekly magazine by Mamen Moya, the
person in charge of the agency for the selection of extras. Casting
of extras began this same week in a well-known bar in Talavera.
They are going to need about 500 men to
re-create a guerrilla army with South American characteristics,
preferably Ecuadorians or Bolivians, or those who have indigenous
traits. This Saturday the casting took place in a well-known park
in Talavera for people of these nationalities. The extras will receive
from 40 to 100 Euros per day, in addition to the food.
40 Euros are the minimum. 60 Euros will be paid to extras with
special parts or those who will be seen more than once, and 100 to
those who have talking parts or outstanding tasks.
Benicio del Toro will be there starting July 17th.

El Buitrón becomes a place of talent and imagination
All the members of the Artistic team of Production were transferred,
yesterday, to the neighboring village of El Buitrón to study, at the site,
the works that they are going to carry out in the next weeks. After
visualizing the photos that were taken last week, the Artistic Director,
accompanied by his production team, was transferred yesterday in
the morning to El Buitrón, taking measures on paper and
drawing fast outlines of streets that would be characterized for
their later filming. Some plans present problems for their shooting,
since in the visualization of the houses, some recent construction
go off key with the old ones. One of the visits that was most interesting
was the interior of the Parish of El Buitrón, where there is studying
the possibility of filming one of the most transcendental scenes
of the film. A guerrilla would burst inside the church to inform the
neighbors about the cause for which Che and his rebellious
companions fight. They were, during a short while, taking photos,
imagining possible shots from different angles. The interior of
the temple, in its construction, presents the same grace as the
outside where the numerous religious adornments and the style
constitute mysticism and devotion.

Steven Soderbergh prepares the filming of his next film in Huelva
The film director Steven Soderbergh is already immersed in the
preproduction work of his new feature Guerrilla, which will be carried
out by Benicio del Toro. Part of the locations for this film have been
centered in the province of Huelva, and in particular in the locality of
Zalamea, that will serve to recreate the passage of Che Guevara and his
guerrilla through the Southeast of Bolivia. The beginning of filming has
been scheduled in principle for the month of August and a part of the
neighbors of the locality could act as extras in the production of the film.
Members of the Association 'La otra mirada', of Zalamea La Real,
have collaborated already with the director with the accomplishment
of a series of aerial shots, that will serve as a previous step for
the work of preproduction of Soderbergh.

First aerial shots in Huelva of the locations
of Steven Soderbergh's new film
Members of the Association 'La otra mirada' of
Zalamea la Real (Huelva) have taken a series of aerial shots that
will serve American director Steven Soderbergh to initiate
the work of preproduction of his new film Guerrilla,
with Benicio del Toro. Sources of the Association explained
that Soderbergh had requested shots of the village of El Buitrón to
make sure in advance of plans that soon will be made by himself
of the site for the days of filming . Félix Rosell, Director of locations
of the film, located in past days the locations where the film is
going to be filmed, located mainly in the village of El Buitrón, in
the municipality of Zalamea La Real. The idea is to recreate the
passage of Che Guevara and his guerrilla through the bluffs of
the Bolivian Southeast in a film carried out by Benicio del Toro.
Rosell has located the points of filming in places of
Zalamea La Real like Piedras Blancas, El Alto de los Barreros,
La Rivera del Manzano, La Fuente de la Picota and areas of the village
of Marigenta, where he has found “leafy and humid zones that would
sufficiently dense to hide a group of guerrilla rebels”. The intention
of the film's team is to begin work in the month of August, and
the idea is to use neighbors as extras, as well as to make reforms
in the zone, like painting facades, building some papier-mâché houses
or to eliminate some lamppost of the streets of the village.

The book of Steven Soderbergh's movie Che.
The Argentine / Ernesto Che Guevara (author)
Scheduled for release in December 2007, The Argentine is the first
episode of Steven Soderbergh's new two-part biopic on Che Guevara
starring Benicio Del Toro as Che.
This book fills in the story after The Motorcycle Diaries,
wherein young Ernesto is transformed from a wide-eyed traveler
to the Cuban revolutionary hero the world knows as Che.
In a letter to his parents from Mexico in July 1955, Guevara writes:
"One recent political event is meeting Fidel Castro, the Cuban
revolutionary, an intelligent young fellow who is very sure of himself
and extraordinarily bold. I think we like each other!"
After this meeting, the young Argentine sets sail for Cuba aboard
the Granma as the doctor of the small group of Cubans led
by Castro who are planning to launch a guerrilla war. After
two years of fighting, the Batista dictatorship falls and
the revolutionaries march into Havana.
Highlights of the book include:
-
Key excerpts from Che's Reminiscences of the Cuban Revolutionary War the basis of Soderbergh's movie The Argentine
-
The story of how Ernesto acquired the name Che
-
A description of the moment Che has to choose between two backpacks: one with medicine, the other with ammunition
-
Original photographs of the period, plus stills from the movie
-
A movie tie-in cover
-
Blurbs by Benicio Del Toro and Steven Soderbergh
This title will also be published in Spanish this season
as El Argentino (978-1-921235-48-1).
The second movie in the series, Guerrilla, is based
on Che's Bolivian Diary and will be released in late summer 2008.

Soderbergh is going to film Guerrilla in San Pablo de Buceite, with
Benicio del Toro. The American director Steven Soderbergh will film
in August in San Pablo scenes of Guerrilla, a film that he is preparing
on Che Guevara, interpreted by Benicio del Toro. The North American
film director will film in El Corchado and in the weeks before a
production team will adapt this old town to the script. Soderbergh aspires
to recreate Bolivia in San Pablo. Guerrilla narrates the life of Che Guevara
from the speech that he held at the UN in 1964 until the death of the
revolutionary, in this Latin American country. The place in which it will be
filmed is the abandoned village that in its day served as housing for
the workers of the hydroelectric power station of El Corchado,
at the shore of the Río Guadiaro. The arrival of a production team
of almost one hundred people is expected. Still the exact days are
not yet known in which the filming will take place, although it is
confirmed that weeks before it will be necessary to remodel the
chosen location. Some of the changes will include clearing some
overhead cables, hiding some chimneys or transferring some fences.
The possibility of Soderbergh filming in San Pablo arose thanks to
Juan Pedro de Gaspar, one of the people in charge of the
artistic direction of Guerrilla and of the locality, by members
of his family. After the shipment of photographs and after
a couple of previous visits, it was Soderbergh himself who came
to visit the zone. The confirmation of the filming demonstrates
that he was convinced by what he saw.

The Guerrilla will take Huelva
The director of locations of the film Guerrilla,
Félix Rosell,
continues
his expedition on Onubense land to locate the places in which the next
film of Steven Soderbergh will be filmed.
Guerrilla is an ambitious project which tries to recreate the passage
of Che Guevara and his guerrilla through the gorges of the Bolivian
Southeast with Benicio Del Toro portraying the commander Che
Guevara. To date, Félix Rosell has located points of filming
in the area of Zalamea La Real like Piedras Blancas, El Alto de
los Barreros, La Rivera del Manzano, La Fuente de la Picota
and the area of the village of Marigenta, where he has found
“leafy and humid zones that would be the sufficiently dense to hide
a group of guerrilla rebels”. The main idea of the director of locations
is to recreate “a hidden plain among vegetation as headquarters of the
camp for the guerrillas”, concretely “La Higuera”, a small Bolivian village
made up of about 30 houses. The intention of the production team is to
begin to work in August after making some reforms in the zone, like
painting facades, placing paper-mâché houses or to eliminate elements
in the streets that do not fit with the time period of the film.
