Easy Rider is perhaps the most famous the late 60s/early 70s wave of American counter-culture movies.
Dennis Hopper’s movie was both hugely successful and influential. I saw it at the cinema years ago, but I must admit I didn’t really “dig” it.
Hopper and Peter Fonda play two hippie bikers taking a road trip through the South on custom Harleys. (Spoiler alert: it doesn’t end well for them.)
The movie features drug-taking aplenty (with real drugs), a lot of stoner conversations, and an early stand-out supporting role for Jack Nicholson. Despite being mostly ad-libbed, the movie picked up an Oscar nomination for Best Original Screenplay, but its real legacy is in its experimental, fractured style of shooting and editing, heavily influenced by and reflective of LSD.
This is a rare original release international one-sheet poster. These were printed in the US but for use in overseas markets, hence it doesn’t have the NSS details at the bottom that US one-sheets have. This is for sale here.
