Description
This is an excellent documentary of the life, times, thoughts and writings of Colombian-born Gabriel García Márquez, one of the twentieth century's most notable authors who is most well known for his Nobel prize winning novel, One Hundred Years of Solitude. García Márquez tells us in his own words, without interruption from an interviewer, about his early life in civil-war torn Colombia; his fascinating forays into other creative endeavors, including his law school student days, employment as a journalist (he later founded a journalism school/movement in Cuba); his work in the political arena; and his less well-known work as a screenwriter and filmmaker. He is at his best when ruminating about the unique and important roles and functions of writers in society, particularly in Latin American dictatorships.

| "who is most well known for his Nobel prize winning novel, One Hundred Years of Solitude." Nobel Prizes for Literature aren't given to authors for individual books. The author has to have a great career to win one.

| Gabriel García Márquez was an amazing writer, brilliant.
However he was a man without a conscience due to his support for the billionaire dictator Castro. Castro gave Gabriel a mansion he had stolen fromhis Cuban slaves.
Gabriel García Marquez sold his soul for a "blood mansion".
