I do enjoy watching motorcycles being ridden in films and shows. Memorable ones for me;
Psychomania(I remember one of the little terrors sticks a knife into a moving lorry's tyre, imagine),
The Great Escape, Terminator2.
Also because of Guzzis; Magnum Force and recently Killing Eve where our psycho hit woman rides a new V7.

Easy Rider, Stone, Hell Ride, Mad Max and I know I've missed some other classic ones ๐

Yes Yarg, good one. I was just looking at a few clips; motorcycles and death is a common theme(probably not Wallace's style).

This is turning into 'films I need to watch'(or rewatch). The other obvious theme is Freedom(and revolution). I read Motorcycle Diaries, before film. Che was destined to become a doctor before the trip exposed him to the poverty of his people(as I'm sure you know).

I was just thinking, that's the first film I saw with Jack in it. But here's the link between him and Hopper/Fonda(aint the internet a wonderful thing!)
'A brief appearance in the exploitation tale 'Hell's Angels on Wheels' followed before Nicholson wrote the acid-culture drama The Trip, which co-starred Dennis Hopper and Peter Fonda..... Nicholson was approached to star in the 1969 counterculture epic Easy Rider...Oscar nomination as the film rose to landmark status'
This is seen as his last B movie(new to me)> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3tjAW0Wl6U

The theme? Dysfunctional, disillusioned, alienated boy meets girl; unhappy ending.
Could explain my long term addiction to British twins, the smell of 2 stroke and an unhappy ending.
