Description
Danny Lyon's 1967 photo book featuring a real motorbike gang served as the inspiration for The Bikeriders. Despite having the same title, Jeff Nichols's film is not a documentary; rather, it is a fast-moving pulp fiction retelling of the outlaw biker genre that was popular in the 1950s and 1960s. It honours films such as The Wild One, a genre classic directed by László Benedek, which is mentioned in the film. As the story progresses, Lyon's job as the interviewer takes on less significance. This film is available for high definition streaming on Myflixer.
