Actor Lee Marvin [former USMC] in a 'Promo' pic for the Movie 'The Wild One' [1953]-playing 'CHINO'
This Movie was inspirational of the origins of 'Hells Angels' Type 'Rebel Motorcycle Gangs' that are
common across the USA. The Pederast Pervert Drug Addict 'HUNTER S THOMSON'
wrote about being 'embedded' with a Group of these individuals in one of His Trash Novellas.
[remember Sobchak the 'Devil Fish' is dressed as 'a Hunter' Gibbor/Orion.. and wears 'Orange Tint' Shades]
Though Thompson’s wild ways frequently cost him his job, they also endeared him to the counterculture that was gaining strength around the country at that time and helped establish him as a fearless journalist with a unique voice. In 1965 these bohemian credentials earned him an assignment to write an article for The Nation about the Hells Angels motorcycle club. Published in May, the story was a huge sensation and led to a book deal for Thompson, who embedded himself with the notorious gang for a year. Though its members nearly killed him at the end of his time with them, Thompson came out the other side with the book Hell’s Angels: The Strange and Terrible Saga of the Outlaw Motorcycle Gangs, published in 1967. The immersive and hallucinatory first-person account of his experiences was an instant smash, firmly establishing Thompson as a journalistic force and launching what would be his trademark style.
Yet even his newfound success could not quite the troublemaker in Thompson’s heart, and in 1970 he decided to shake up the local establishment by running for sheriff of Pitkin County, Colorado, on the "Freak Power" ticket. With a platform that included relaxing penalties for drug offenses, renaming Aspen “Fat City” and turning to replace the asphalt on the streets with sod, Thompson was only narrowly defeated by his mainstream opponent, but his story about the campaign, "The Battle of Aspen,” appeared in Rolling Stone that October. Thompson would maintain his relationship with the magazine for most of his life, serving as its national affairs editor until 1999.
Thompson set out on his next assignment, to cover the presidential campaigns of Richard Nixon and George McGovern. Appearing initially as a series of articles in Rolling Stone, Thompson’s incendiary and humorous accounts were later collected and published as Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail ’72.
Thompson skipped the fight and instead spent his time floating in the hotel pool, into which he had tossed a pound and a half of marijuana.
Thompson spent time in a Wheelchair with chronic health problems..
He eventually committed suicide-shooting Himself in the Head with one of His assorted Firearms in His extensive collection.
SUICIDES by Gunshot are far more common in USA -IMDB has a list of 150
Persons from the entertainment world who committed Suicide-including
Barry BROWN...[Bad Company Movie] and Stuart Adamson [Against all Odds 1984 Movie]
Herman Melville's SON....Ernest Hemingway...the list is a long one..
[and I don't like Their endings either]..Drug [ab]Users are far more likely especially if They have developed a Mental iIlness such as Schizophrenia
or Depression etc..]
Thompson liked using a 'Cigarette Holder' somewhat akin to 'Batman's 'Penguin' Character...and wore tinted 'Airforce' Shades.. probably originally from His short lived USAF Service and used to hide bloodshot eyes etc.
LAS VEGAS [leaving] features prominently in His rambling scribblings.
[the Character 'Bunny' ie Cocaine/Alice is 'Leaving Las Vegas' in a nod to the Spanish 'the Meadows' or Grassy Fields ..trans..Blag 'Elysium']
On the Caribbean Island of Dominica Republic there is a festival where every year They 'laugh at the Devil'.. this is called 'Diablo La[s] Vega'..[see web]
and some fantastic Costumes are made.. Columbus supposedly brought the
'Devil' Iconography with Him from Spain and the Island was given the European Name 'Hispaniola' after the realisation that it was not 'America' as first thought.
Thompson was another 'Mullet' [Third Son]
His Ex WW1 Military Father died whilst He was still a Youngster- a Psychiatrist could make much of this and His subsequent 'liking' for Guns etc.. but that's not going to be Me.. lol..
'The American Dream' He so desperately searched for, Freedom etc.. was long gone before He was born-Hijacked by the Dollar Designers. Dude.
and swapped for a Statue of Astarte [Lucifer] in the biggest joke of all..
[pic hmdb.org]
Inspired by Egypt’s ancient statues and pyramids, Bartholdi proposed a colossal robed woman holding a torch, symbolizing progress and enlightenment. The statue was intended to represent an Egyptian peasant woman, a nod to the nation’s modernization efforts.
But financial struggles forced Egypt to abandon the project, and Bartholdi repurposed his idea for the United States.
Grand 'Wizards?' ....or Conmen?
[Gonzo and Sesame Street? I think Jeff Bridges once made an appearance?
on that show..?
I once saw Him on Youtube in New York playing a Ukulele..lol.. ]
Depp was 'fascinated' by Thompson.. He pushed for the 'RUM DIARY' a Book by Thompson to be Published.. but as a Cinematic Pirate , Depp's Performances are indeed 'Rum' [crap]- I know because I was a 'bit of a Pirate' Myself once.. Sparrow's are food for Sea Eagles.. Jack.
But that's the thing about 'the Unconscious' -it's very Fishy!
[and it cannot discriminate Word Meanings- 'Reef' and 'Reefer' are constantly confused- Reef Fish like in 'Finding Nemo' Clownfish etc or 'Reefer' being someone who smokes Cannabis or someone who makes 'Reef Knots' as a
worker ie Sailor or Theatre Stage Worker]
I HAVE ALREADY SHOWN THAT JEFF HAS BEEN POISONED.
The Toxin probably originated from a 'Blow Fish' Neurotoxin.
'Ray' is a Fish [Devil Fish are Names for either a Seawater 'Manta' or an Octopus...or Mexican Catfish that has upset the nature balance in Texas Freshwater Rivers etc]
'Bunny' is a Mermaid.. etc [LITTLE MERMAID-ARIEL]
'TBL' is also a 'Merman' [or TRITON as in 'His office']
'Jeff' is a Clown Fish [NEMO]
'Donny' is a Crab.. and so on.. really They are all Sharks/Hustlers finding 'form'
'Tides'
'Surfers'
'Beaches'
'Chinaman' is a Pacific Fish..
'Bikini'...
Whales, Sharks Walrus...and Mullet..
are all fishy forms of Drugs- [Blue Whale=Heroin etc]-All are 'Astral' 'Gods'
Jeff is 'ARIES'- TBL is 'NEPTUNE' - W-alter is 'MARS '- Bunny is VENUS etc
but They are all false representations.. or old 'SOGERS'...
Sogers are RED HERRINGS...the FIJI MERMAID is one of the most famous
HOAXES ..used by Travelling Carnival -Type Shows, 'KELPIES' are Scottish Half Horse and Half Fish Mythologic Marine 'Entities' as Julie Ann Moore's Psychologist Mother from Scotland would well know...and 'MOBY DICK' was written as a 'Phallic Joke'...but that's another Tail..
LEVIATHAN.. got a Job...
In Movie-Land.. Chino.. moved on..
Marvin was quite a shrewd Operator- He is the only Actor I know who has actually selected His own DIRECTOR when making a Movie- 'POINT BLANK'[ 1967] The DIRECTOR -JOHN BOORMAN.
review: "What makes Point Blank so extraordinary, however, is not its departures from genre conventions, but Boorman's virtuoso use of such unconventional avant-garde stylistics to saturate the proceedings with a classical noir mood of existential torpor and romanticized fatalism."
Themes
Viewers and critics have often questioned whether or not the film is really a dream that Walker has after he is shot in the beginning. The film's director John Boorman claims to not have an opinion on the matter."What it is, is what you see", responded Boorman. While filmmaker Steven Soderbergh has described Point Blank as "memory film" for Marvin. Boorman believes the film is about Lee Marvin's brutalizing experiences in World War II, which dehumanized him and left him desperately searching for his humanity.[6]Critic David Thomson has written that the character of Walker is actually deadthroughout the entire movie and the events of the film are a dream of the accumulating stages of revenge.[19]
Others have also considered this concept; Brynn White has questioned whether or not Walker is a mortal or a ghost, "a vaporous embodiment of bitter vengeance barely clinging to Boorman's variegated frames" and Boorman has commented: "He could just as easily be a ghost or a shadow".[20]Some critics consider Point Blank, "a haunted, dream-like film that draws upon the spatial and temporal experiments of modernist European art cinema", especially the "time-fractured" films of French director Alain Resnais.
Lee Marvin-
"Sam [Peckinpah] was dangerous for me. He had my number and I had his, and that can be bad between an actor and a director. 'Cause he was a little guy." -- Lee Marvin, born 100 years ago today: February 19, 1924.
In fact, the professional relationship between Marvin and Peckinpah was limited to two television episodes (for ROUTE 66 and THE DICK POWELL THEATER, the latter being an adaptation of an episode of THE WESTERNER) and some attempts at film collaborations that never went anywhere.
Therefore, we are left with one of the great "What might have been" scenarios as we consider the works in which they nearly collaborated -- including Marvin as Pike in THE WILD BUNCH (which he turned down for PAINT YOUR WAGON and because he deemed it too close to THE PROFESSIONALS), Sam Potts in MAJOR DUNDEE (which went to James Coburn), Sheriff Cottonmouth in CONVOY (Ernest Borgnine was eventually cast), and THE EMPEROR OF THE NORTH, a passion project for Sam that he was never able to make but eventually starred Marvin and Ernest Borgnine under the direction of Robert Aldrich.
That being said, what a remarkable cinematic legacy Marvin continues to leave behind -- as title villain in THE MAN WHO SHOT LIBERTY VALANCE (1962), Charlie Strom in THE KILLERS (1964), both gunfighter Kid Shelleen and criminal Tim Strawn in a dual role in CAT BALLOU (1965; when he won his Oscar for the dual role, he quipped, "I think one-half of this belongs to some horse somewhere in the Valley"), Rico Fardan in THE PROFESSIONALS (1966), Major John Reisman in THE DIRTY DOZEN (1967), Ben Rumson in PAINT YOUR WAGON (1969), Walker in POINT BLANK (1967), and the Sergeant in THE BIG RED ONE (1980). These are but a sample of great performances from Marvin, a former marine who fought and was wounded in Saipan before he came to Hollywood and forged his career as some of the most iconic hardboiled "tough guy" characters.
Regarding his remarkable career, Marvin once stated,"Fear is possibly the greatest motivation there is. But, as I said before, by pretending not to fear, you can make it work for you and get the job done. Every actor is full of doubts about himself, and I'm no exception. If you see those fears in yourself-- and expose them -- the audience can associate with you more deeply than if you try to play it safe and pretend to be the invincible tough guy. To show my strength is nothing; to show my weakness is everything. I suppose it takes a certain kind of strength to admit your fears, but I really don't think it's anything more than simple honesty." He passed August 29, 1987, aged 63.
I SUPPOSE ACTING IS NOT UNLIKE PSYCHOLOGY IN MANY RESPECTS...BUT CHINO IS ALSO A 'COWBOY' MOVIE..DIRECTED BY STURGES
'HELL IN THE PACIFIC' MOVIE [1968]...HAS LEE MARVIN PISSING ON THE HEAD OF A JAPANESE NAVY GUY..
Lee Marvin portrays an American pilot who, along with a marooned Japanese navy captain (played by Toshirô Mifune), finds themselves stranded on a small uninhabited island in the Pacific Ocean during World War II.
PISSING IN MOVIES HAS BEEN AROUND A LONG LONG TIME DUDE....IT'S A 'MY DICK[GUN] IS BIGGER THAN YOURS'..MALE EGO PROJECTION THING [IMHO]
BUT THE PACIFIC IN THIS INSTANCE IS THE 'STAGE'
IN SOME WAYS IT ILLUSTRATES THE ABSURDITY OF IDEOLOGY 'CONFLICTS' BECOMING MANI-FEST. JAPANESE -AMERICANS AND GERMAN-AMERICANS WERE ILLEGALLY INTERRED DURING WW2 ? ON WHAT AUTHORITY? THE FBI's? I THINK MOST PEOPLE HAVE AN IDEA ABOUT J.EDGAR HOOVER BUT NOT TOO MANY WILL KNOW HE WAS A 33rd DEGREE 'FREEMASON' AS WELL AS A TRANSVESTITE..
LEE MARVIN WAS NO 'RAGS TO RICHES' ACTOR-HE CAME FROM A VERY WEALTHY PRIVILEGED BACKGROUND....BUT INTERESTINGLY WAS EXPELLED FROM BOARDING SCHOOL -BEFORE ENLISTING IN THE USMC.
He was sent to several boarding schools, and was expelled from many of them for misbehavior.
In 1942, he dropped out of a prep school in Florida and got enlisted in the Marines before WWII. He was commissioned in the South Pacific and was involved in the assault on Mount Tapochau in which most of his unit was killed. He got injured below his spine and nearly lost his life on Saipan. He earned a Purple Heart for his bravery. After this incident he was medically discharged from the military ranked ‘Private First Class’.
Then he moved back to Woodstock where he got employment with a local plumber. When he was doing repairs at the Maverick Theater, he was asked to step into a role of an ailing actor. Marvin made a lot out of this opportunity and never turned his head back.
He made is stage debut with a small part in ‘Billy Budd’.[!]
I NEVER KNEW HE WAS AN ALCOHOLIC? [AND PACIFIST AGAINST THE VIETNAM 'WAR']...
'BING CROSBY' WHO RECORDED WITH DAVID BOWIE WAS ALSO AN ALCOHOLIC...[AND HAD TWO SONS WHO COMMITTED SUICIDE].....LEE MARVIN CHOSE TO BE BURIED IN ARLINGTON CEMETERY IN WASHINGTON DC WITH A SIMPLE EPITHET
PVT. USMC.
HIS QUOTE; 'I'M NO WAR HERO, I'M JUST A GUY WHO GOT SHOT IN THE ASS' RESONATES
NEEDLESS TO SAY-HE HAD A DRINK PROBLEM [DEPENDENCY] TOO..ARLINGTON IS ALSO THE NAME OF A UNIVERSITY IN TEXAS. DUDE.
LEE MARVIN WAS FIRST CHOICE TO PLAY 'QUINT'IN 'JAWS' THE SPIELBERG 'GREAT WHITE' MOVIE..[WITH IT'S BACKGROUND POT SMOKING ETC]
'QUINT' IS LATIN FOR 5 OR 'FIFTH'-ROBERT SHAW WAS REPORTED AS ACTUALLY BEING VERY DRUNK ON A REGULAR BASIS WHILST WORKING ON SET PLAYING 'QUINT'
OH BEFORE I FORGET -'THE BIG LEBOWSKI?'..... IS ALSO AN ANAGRAM THAT CONTAINS
'GWB' [Great White Brotherhood']etc....Take it easy lol...
BUT BACK TO THEATRE-LAND; SHAKEY AS WE KNOW WAS A POTHEAD...WELL VERSED IN OPIUM
William Shakespeare famously wrote in his play Othello:
‘Not poppy, nor mandragore, Nor all the drowsy syrups of the world,
Shall ever medicine thee to that sweet sleep, Which thou ow’dst yesterday.’
The term 'laudanum was first coined in the 16th century by the Italian botanist Paracelsus, who called his own pill-like laudanum preparation ‘the stone of immortality’
'Johnson' is a Cannabis Joint sealed with Opium...
and 'Othello' was the first Stage Play for Lloyd Bridges...in NYC ..Dude
So now We know some Scriptwriter other than the Coens used Lloyd Bridges as Their 'ACTING ICON' in the Game.
[We already have most of the other actual 'Games' Poker Monopoly The Telephone Game etc as well as Books - Crime and Punishment/The Idiot by Dostoevsky and Billy Budd by Melville - DOSTOEVSKY WAS MELVILLE'S EXACT CONTEMPORARY and most of the Directors involved in previous Movies]
Others include 'GARY COOPER' etc
Philosophy don't make Me laugh -Wittgenstein the depressed Morgue Attendant -Herzl-Sartre? these Writers have no idea about Philosophy 'Existential' or otherwise .They ALL get an 'F' .
Jeff Bridges probably used English Actor James Masons Movies [Odd Man Out , LOLITA etc] as Mason mentored young Jeff in 'Mr Go' -these 'influencers' take different 'forms' when Memory is recalled via Hypnosis/ENTHEOGEN/[Drug] usage.
Mason is probably behind the Character Harrington who made the Porno flick and sold it to 'Maud[e]' -remember 'Maud[e]'is a Theatre Term for AN EFFEMINATE MAN/TRANSVESTITE -The 'Nihilist' Guy in the POOL is behind the Lloyd 'Inflation/Floater/Turd Spirit-Less Character Hunter S Thompson Parody]I'm not too sure about the rest of the Cast/Crew but think Music 'preferences' also come to light as there are many differing 'Styles' Classical 'Heavy Metal etc -same with the Actors really-They must ALL have had to Study SHAKESPEARE in Drama School etc at one time in Their respective Careers. I've covered a lot of what I perceive to be Movie 'influencers' Oscar winning etc such as 'MARTY' [1956] with Ernest BORGNINE in My 'INTRODUCTION' Post.
'CRACK COCAINE' and 'MARIJUANA' [A 'JOHNSON' in Street] also goes by other Names 'TURBO' 'SHERMAN' etc...but I'VE ALSO COVERED THIS IN MY CH1 'DRUGS ARE TALKING 'but maybe You can make CONNECTION with 'MILITARY GENERALS?
'THE GENERAL is a BUSTER KEATON Movie.. and also the Name BEAU BRIDGES is quoted [In His Mothers Book of Poetry] assaying the BRIDGES kids called Their Mother...Just as SLOTH is what He calls JEFF get it?' Against All Odds' the JEFF BRIDGES MOVIE ...has everything I've been saying about 'LEBOWSKI' contained in it's Script. These Guys are very much expert on old/vintage Movies-its where They steal Their ideas from constantly.
Mujer is Spanish for 'Woman or Lady ' ...but...MUJER is also Street for Cocaine.
'Over the Line?'...'Has visto esta Mujer? Dude....Of course You have.
Everything in this Blog is My Opinion...what is Yours?
Its all about Feeling ...not 'TOES' [Street for Cannabis] or 'BLOW' [Cocaine]...
THE COENS OBVIOUSLY ARE IN NEED OF THERAPY FOR THEIR PEDERASTY 'EXPERIENCES'. JEFF NEVER LOST THE 20 GRAND. HIS CONMAN DAD ARRANGED FOR IT TO BE TAKEN.IT IS MENTIONED IN BURGESS MEREDITH'S BIOGRAPHY AT A TIME WHEN YOUNG MULLET WAS USING HEROIN.
Burgess Meredith was born in 1907. He was a stage actor who made many movies in the late 1930s and early 1940s, and his most memorable of these was as George in Of Mice and Men, and as Ernie Pyle in The Story of G.I. Joe.
He was caught up in the McCarthy blacklist, and turned to television, where he had four very memorable appearances on The Twilight Zone, and later as The Penguin on the 1960s Batman TV show. Some of his other movie roles include: Rocky (as Mickey), Grumpy Old Men, and Clash of the Titans[PIC eMoviePoster.com]
YOUR ROLE!..LOL!...TAKE YOUR 'INUIT' WALRUS SKIN TRAMPOLINE -TRAPEZE PERFORMERS USED SOMETHING SIMILAR TO PRACTICE WITH.. THE 'ARCHETYPE' OF DMT [ENTHEOGEN IN CANNABIS] IS THE CIRCUS..SO OUR HERO JEFF MAY HAVE BEEN A 'WALL OF DEATH' MOTORCYCLE RIDER OR SIMILAR 'STUNTMAN' IN A CIRCUS OR TRAVELLING CARNIVAL? MORE LIKELY HE WAS A ' DOOR TO DOOR' 'KOWALSKI' [DEATH OF A ]SALESPERSON? A PART TIME VENDOR 'IN BETWEEN JOBS' AS AN ACTOR..WHO KNOWS? OR GIVES A SHIT ANYWAY..THE INTERNET .
[PIC WIKIPEDIA SEE MY 'MALIBU MYCOLOGY' POST]
'FLYING FISH' IS LSD IN STREET...'FISH' IS AN INEXPERIENCED NAIVE PRISON INMATE OR CARD PLAYER ETC...AND EVERYTHING IN 'THE BIG LEBOWSKI' IS VERY FISHY...
The innocent looking Apartment is where the Poker was played-yet on closer examination
it is full of cheating devices/ Two way Mirrors[Bottles strategically placed to reflect etc-Jeff was being fleeced regularly.. He just never realised there is always a bigger fish...
and everything is 'Fishy' in LEBOWSKI -INCLUDING LOKI'S WEB LOL!-IT'S ALL 'SUN' SYMBOLISM AND 'SUN' IS 'TRICKSTER' -HENCE THE 'JACKSON POLLOCK/MAUDE 'ACTION!' IMPRESSION IS REALLY SYDNEY POLLACK MOVIE DIRECTOR OF 'SONGWRITER' - UNFULFILLED WISH AGAIN..IN MY OPINION-
AS HE ALSO DIRECTED THE DIRE DUSTIN HOFFMAN AS 'TOOTSIE' THE JEWISH TRANSVESTITE MOVIE.
Smoke and Mirrors and Stage 'Magic'? or 'STRIKES AND GUTTERS' as seen in the Movie Taxi Driver ha ha ha...ALL VERY FISHY...Jealousy of Robert De Niro...
GOTCHA!
Addendum 14 Aug 2024
The 'Wild One' Motorcycle Movie from 1953 [Director -STANLEY KRAMER] was banned here in the UK for many years by Censors who refused to give it a Certificate for Public Showing.
Marlon Brando and the Coen Brothers Movies have a History- They are reported as 'mimicking' Brando during Production of 'Lebowski' -They even considered Him for the part of 'Dude'-and of course Brando was famous as a Theatre Method-Actor in Productions such as 'Streetcar named Desire' [as Kowalski]
'The Motorcyclists' [Movie 2023] with Tom Hardy etc has many references to 'OUTLAW' Groups of individuals associated with Motorcycles -most of which were 'offshoots' from the Original Law Abiding Clubs of enthusiasts.
Hardy's Character has dialogue concerning the 'Wild One' which He says was the 'inspiration' for starting up His Club.[THE VANDALS]
'Wild One' as an 'iconic' influence on American Youth is undeniable-yet Brando was 29 when He played the part of 'Johnny' and Marvin was also 29...playing 'Chino'.
Ralph 'Sonny' Barger one of the founders of the 'Hells Angels Motorcycle Club' wrote in His Autobiography that 'Johnny' was a lesser influence to Him -He was more inclined to think 'Chino'
represented what He saw as non-conformity. [Apparently the original 'HELLS ANGELS' were WW2Vets who rode ex Army Harleys and took Their Name from either the 1930's Aviation Movie-or others depicting 'Flying Tigers' etc although the actual History is much debated as to who exactly came up with the idea of changing the 'Pissed off Bastards' Motorcycle Club to 'Hells Angels']
Some famous Members such as 'Hunter S Thompson' the Pederast became associated with 'Psychedelia'
through illicit LSD etc usage.
In modern day USA there are dozens of Motorcycle Clubs of all Ethnicity- the 'Iconic' Bikes in the USA are HARLEY-DAVIDSON and INDIAN...[HARLEYS HAVE NICKNAMES FATBOYS or H.OG's or 'FARMBOYS' 'ELECTRAS' 'PAN-AMERICA' or even 'RANGER'] and INDIAN MOTORCYCLES?
Their 'H.Q' [Minnesota] 'ACE' 'SCOUT' ..[WATCH THE SPIELBERG 'INDIANA' MOVIES OR EVEN OLD HAM ANTHONY HOPKINS 'WORLD'S FASTEST INDIAN' ]
According to Ralph "Sonny" Barger, founder of the Oakland charter in 1957, other early charters of the club were founded in Gardena, and elsewhere, with the members usually unaware that there were other clubs. One of the lesser-known clubs was in North Chino/South Pomona in the late 1960s. Barger has been credited with helping to unify these various disparate charters under common club bylaws.[32][33][34]
Other sources claim that the San Francisco Hells Angels were organized in 1953 by Rocky Graves, a Hells Angel member from San Bernardino ("Berdoo"), implying that the "Frisco" Hells Angels were very much aware of their forebears.[35] The "Frisco" Hells Angels were reorganized in 1955 with 13 charter members, Frank Sadilek serving as president, and the smaller, original logo. The Oakland charter, at the time headed by Barger, used a larger version of the "Death's Head" patch nicknamed the "Barger Larger", which was first used in 1959. It later became the club standard.[36] The first charter to open outside California was established in Auckland, New Zealand, in 1961.[20]
The Hells Angels are often depicted in semi-mythical romantic fashion like the 19th-century James–Younger Gang: free-spirited, iconic, bound by brotherhood and loyalty. At other times, such as in the 1966 Roger Corman film The Wild Angels, they are depicted as violent and nihilistic, little more than a violent criminal gang and a scourge on society.[37]
The club became prominent within, and established its notoriety as part of, the 1960s counterculture movement in San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury District, playing a part at many of the movement's seminal events.
"Gonzo" journalist Hunter S. Thompson's book about the club launched his career. From 1968 to 1969 the Hells Angels of San Francisco headquarters was at 715 Ashbury (across from the Grateful Dead house at 710 Ashbury)[wikipedia]
The 'Colours' on 'Bandanas' are used to 'identify' different Groups 'Green' 'PURPLE' etc also denote Their origins.-in 'Wild One' ...LEE MARVIN'S Character 'CHINO' leads a 'breakaway' Motorcycle 'Group who call themselves?
THE BEETLES.
A Character called 'ART KLEIN' gets injured in the Movie...And what a lot of People do not really notice.. is A TRIUMPH T6 MOTORCYCLE is ridden by Brand-o.. and like most British Bikes of that era- was a Pain to Start but once running was pretty much unbeatable until the Japanese came along a decade later and just blew away everything...The 'Crickets' along with BUDDY HOLLY all rode British Bikes...as did Steve McQueen...
[Nazi 'Scientist' Gerhard Orzechowski invented 'Cocaine Chewing Gum' laced with Amphetamine as part of a 'Super Soldier' Program which was continued after WW2 by the US Government as part of 'MK ULTRA'- Dude]- An 'Enemy of the People' [Ibsen]
A Nazi adaptation of the play was Hans Steinhoff's 1937 film Ein Volksfeind.
this Play is banned in China ..[see rest of article on Wikipedia]
