Description
Because the vandals are so notorious that the police are afraid of them, new members begin to pour in, progressively breaking the regulations set down by Johnny—a truck driver by day who wants Benny to take over the club in Afdah. The story of this nostalgic rise-and-fall curve is primarily portrayed chronologically, with great attention to detail applied to all the locales, machineries, clothes, and other period details. The bike riders are disturbed by a lack of clarity in tone and emphasis. Nichols employs an egalitarian rhythm, alternating between the three in a distinctly programmatic manner, in order to strike the perfect balance between paying due respect to Kathy's narrative, emulating the Dean-Brando-Peter Fonda iconography, and genuflecting on Lyon's source images of the genuine gang.
