Man...
I just watched The Bikeriders and I'll say: I have A LOT to talk about this movie, I might go into one of my rants about it and toxic masculinity and just the overall male need for connection and the struggle against hegemonic culture in capitalism
Plus, there's so much depth in Benny's character and his relationship with Johnny and Kathy, and he barely even appears!!!
And Kathy, I love how unromanticized her story was.
Johnny and his desperation to be what Benny was effortless
The Vietnam War and its impact on a subculture as a demonstration of how deep cultural hegemony and capitalism can affect peoples' lives
It's amazing really
