Trailer

Why watch this film?

One of the great classics of cinema, made in a great collaborative effort between Dennis Hopper (director, lead actor and co-writer) and Peter Fonda (producer, lead actor and co-writer), which won Hopper the Best First Work Award at the Cannes Film Festival and put the then young Jack Nicholson in the spotlight, being nominated for an Oscar and a Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actor. Not to mention that the story captures the feeling of Americans at the end of the 1960s, in a great mix of hope and lack of it at the moment of the explosion of the counterculture (which includes a memorable soundtrack).
