      little meaning

      Well.. from west to south, the scenery is like from Karamay Turpan to Ili. Familiar Gobi, Familiar horizon, Familiar sunset, Familiar water plants, Familiar snow-capped mountains... It turns out that when I was playing in Altay, the driver's uncle liked to pick up stones. Many people in our place like to pick up stones. Picking up interesting stones on the Gobi Desert....too many stones. Delicate stones that are not horny, wipe off the dusty and shiny colorful stones, and eagerly mention that...

      touring

      When it comes to the most culturally connotative model, it is the Prince's car. Prince car is also called cruise car, that is, the Touring model in foreign models. The features of this type of vehicle in appearance are high-level handlebars, drop-shaped fuel tanks, ultra-low seat cushions, extended axle torque and larger reach angle riding motorcycles.

      Compared with other models, Prince Car pursues more comfort when riding, which makes it suitable for long-distance riding. In fact,...

      for freedom

      I have to say that sometimes film and television works or some shocking works will not only shock people but also bring that kind of long-lasting unforgettable impact, even if it is not unforgettable, but it is always in the mind like nostalgia. The throbbing echoing in the "easy rider", many people have seen this American film, or feel yearning, puzzled or hated for its protagonist's debauchery, or the swaying of people or things on the road, a nightmare Ordinary experiences are terrifying, or...

      We blew it

      I have found several subtitles and there are no lyrics in the film. It is recommended to find the album and listen to the original sound. The lyrics take on a lot of ideographic functions. If you don't understand it, you're watching a scenery movie, and you're missing a lot of fun -- for example, you've just finished singing born to be wild, and you've been locked out of a hotel. The Easy Rider, who seems to be in self-imposed exile, is not exiled by the mainstream society?
            After...

      on the way

      Best widescreen road movie I've ever seen. One side of Peter Fonda easily killed me. Jack Nicholson told Billy the truth. Running music.
      Good movie, hardly remembered as a product of nearly 40 years ago, except of course the first hitchhiker and the life he brought. Always on the road, shining Harley traverses the spaces of the stream of consciousness, hoping to reach the core of life. Desperate? Are you happy? Yes, both are.
      In the middle of a good road movie, the director gets...

      New Orleans today is indistinguishable from what it was 50 years ago, gorgeous and raucous, rundown and crazy. A series of jump shots showing the drug-addicting hallucinations is a stroke of genius. Hate crime and nameless death have continued to this day, and the America of the hippie era doesn't seem to be...

      This movie can only get 3 stars at most, but I'll add 1 star out of my love for it. Easy Rider, who doesn't like Easy...

      20130203 The editing is good, the whole film has no rules, I love the psychedelic editing at the end / I admit that the first half is a bit boring, as soon as young Jack appears, it is interesting, the biggest highlight They're not scared of you. They're scared of what you represent to 'em. Freedom. / This is America in 1969

      "Freedom is hard, especially when you're a piece of meat on a chopping board. So don't tell people they're not free, they'll prove you wrong by killing and doing evil. They'll keep talking to you , to tell you what freedom is, but when they actually see a free person, they get...

    Movie plot

    After Billy and White made a cocaine deal, they rode a motorcycle to New Orleans to participate in the carnival before Lent. Because they have long hair and ride on motorcycles painted with strange patterns, onlookers will look suspicious and hostile wherever they go, and even hotels will not allow them to stay overnight. They had no choice but to live and eat and live a "ronin" life. They attended a gathering of homeless people in New...

    Tidbits

    Lip Ton was originally scheduled to be the actor of George Hansen.
    The film customized four police motorcycles. One was destroyed during filming, and the other three cars were stolen before the filming was completed.
    In the Louisiana coffee shop, the countryman who mocked the boys and the two people who hitchhiked at the end of the movie are local residents hired by the producer. In the coffee shop scene, the producer wanted to find some...

    Piercing

    When Wyatt got permission from the farmer to repair the motorcycle in the barn, a cowboy was nailing the horse with his left hand on the back of the horse. The positions of his hands are different between different shots.
    Wyatt and Billy went to New Orleans to attend the Mardi Gras celebrations there . This event was held in mid-February. The places they drove in the movie were still in winter, but on the road Most of the actors I met...

    Evaluation action

    The film can be regarded as a benchmark for road films. The expression of the theme in the film can easily resonate with viewers. The plot is fascinating, especially its narcissism and fatalism, and its reflection on the hippie movement is very deep. ("Chicago Reader" review) 
    Peter Fonda’s performance is like putting on a beautiful dress for the film, which complements the background music of Belt Schneider, and compiles the work...

    Movie quotes

    • George Hanson: I guess I really tied one on last night. I must have had a helluva good time. I wish I could remember it.

    • Billy: I'm sorry about that, eh, you know, that misunderstanding.

      George Hanson: Oh, that's alright. There's no misunderstanding. We're all in the same cage, here.

    • George Hanson: They got this here, see, scissor-happy, beautify America thing going on around here. They're tryin' to make everybody look like Yul Brynner. They use rusty razor blades on the last two long hairs that they brought in here and I wasn't here to protect 'em. See, I'm a - I'm a law-er. Done a lot of work for the ACLU.
