A real great piece of storytelling. A wonderfull documentary.

[riodjpup]

Thank you so much- so very,very much. I heard of Dennis Hoppers death today, just after the release East Coast time, on commercial free radio. I was having a bad day - then worse - then good, thinking - Mahn, if he had to pick a weekend to die - this surely would be it! Not being morbid - I mean it, and I love him and don't think anyone who loved him - from afar or close, would deny that. I spent the rest of my day watching all 7 - from a pretty slllowww computer - and I love you.

Far Out!!

[dullsvillain]

Really interesting. I always thought Easy Rider was a flawed work that could have been a real masterpiece. I look at it as a sort of home movie now and I dig it more.

Great post man. This film changed my life. The film revealed america's horrible ugly side. What a challenge for the whole cast and crew though. Artists are difficult people at times.

[YouSpamTard]

I think the movie reveled the good side of America as well though. We don't want to forget that part. :)

Two guys on bikes, traveling across the states. Living life free. Harley Davidson's that didn't break down ever other mile. LoL The wonderful music. Freedom and liberation that the hippies gave us. Love and peace. We need some of these things in the world today.

I send you positive energy. :) Take care.

"America's horrible ugly side"

Calm down dude! America was a beautiful place back then. Horror is where you find it, if you want to go looking.

[xibok]

The soundtrack is incredible

[chaindrive76]

Thanks... this was a movie that really changed my life at the age of 16 ..that winter I bought my first H-D..and I still own it ..and a few more LOL ...But No Evo's yet ..LOL

[TheEnkidu1]

Thank you for taking time to post these.

IT is really appreciated and shed much one could never otherwise know and helped me appreciate the film more.

We need far more independent films today, and wish it would become some sort of trend, embarrassing Hollywood nonsense film-making methods.

Thankyou for sharing this with everyone. It's quite ironic also what happened to the bikes. The fact they were dismantled and gone. Just like the age of great music and films and exactly the message the movie was portraying. Incredible

[Loofafa]

thanks for posting this. I'm to young to remember it from the first time around but I saw it for the first time when I was 16 in the mid nineties and found it mindblowing. It say something about a film when so long after it was made it still has relevance. The end of that film is so powerful even today

[ascetics]

i love this documentary. thanks for posting it. wish you had left in the whole quote at the very end, though... it's a good one.

[makemehavefun]

i was just thinking that, literally, 10 secs ago. if anyone can finish what he was saying, say it here.

[greasemunky326]

whats the name of the song that starts playning at about 4:15?

[swaycobain]

Sounds like "House of the Rising sun", but I'm not sure.

[antipolish]

Correct, all be it a different version!

[pacificlipper]

Yup my faverit fiiillum ...just one query and i wonder evry time i revisit it.....last scene of the fonda bike burnin...theres no body? or maybe i just cant see it.

[fidel1320]

that´s a big question...anyone helps in..?

[makemehavefun]

I don't think they wanted to show a (his, fonda's...) body. remember what fonda said about the symbolism of sticking a tube filled with money into a gas tank painted as the american flag? "fucking the flag with money", and one of the last things he said was, "we blew it". That's the last thing we see, that idea going down in flames, up in smoke, and the symbolism Fonda talked about of the two paths... one man-made and one made by God; the road and the river.

[TonyAntSpilotro]

It was a metafer

[rachelle073]

Great to see.

One of my favourite films ever,ive still got the LP with The Smith doing "The Weight".

I rekon their version is better.

Saw this in 70 in Sydney with a mate and ive see it 5 or 6 times since.

Claasic and thanks man for submitting this.

[Defenstrator]

Thanks alot. It was cool to hear all the stories and see how it all came together.

[520DSL]

whats the second song on this clip? starts at 1:06

[philhellmouth]

i was wondering the same thing. it does say original music composed by Robby Krieger, doors guitarist. hope it helps,if you find out the name ,let me know.

[PinkChampain]

You guys made it, you didn't blow it......

[suzmetal89]

I have the lp soundtrack,:the weight by the band was deleated from the soundtrack,and replaced by a band named smith, and its alright ma "im only bleeding' and the balled of easy rider are credited to roger mcguinn not bobby dylan, the way peter explaines. i dont understand this but great film and exelent soundtrack. MASTERPIECE FILM!!!!!

[Reliabilitymans]
