The motorcycles are certainly the stars of the movie, particularly Fonda's. Other than that it is just a music video with 15 or 20 pages of random dialog cut in. As I said earlier, the soundtrack album is better than a DVD of the movie. I have a half dozen of the songs in my playlist but I have not watched the movie in 30 years. Opinions are like assholes.The motorcycles were props. Yeah, like "Bruce" was just a prop in Jaws. A simple review on Wiki notes, correctly: A landmark counterculture film, and a "touchstone for a generation" that "captured the national imagination", Easy Rider explores the societal landscape, issues, and tensions in the United States during the 1960s, such as the rise and fall of the hippie movement, drug use, and communal lifestyle. In Easy Rider, real drugs were used in scenes showing the use of marijuana and other substances. It shows in the directing (Hopper) You might have paid more attention to what the movie was saying, rather than just to the motorcycles. What did it say? Smoke dope, drop acid and get murdered? Real inspirational. It is amusing that as soon as I said I didn't really care for the movie that much, you flip flopped and became a raving fan. Did I ever tell you how much I admire Hillary Clinton ;-) |
