The Wild Ride
Ahemm, this doesn't really deserve an Ovarit thread, delete me if I'm too terrible. I like B-movies!
This is a film from 1960 with a bit of "marijuana will kill you" state disapproval to it, like the stuff you watched at school that told you not to buy cocaine. It's Jack Nicholson as "a rebellious punk named Johnny, of the Beat generation, who spends his days as an amateur dirt track driver in between partying and troublemaking".
Hardly any dialogue at the beginning, which makes it seem a bit sparse and dreamy. ASMR. Then we meet these naughty beatniks, who for the whole film speak in what was probably a disapproving adult writer's attempt to sound "hip". "Are you TOP STUD, or are you just LAME? I can't dig that."
I found it an amusing watch (because I like seeing a bit of 60s history), but of course half the plot is the Super Mario man-get-girl "rescue my girlfriend from someone else who had my girlfriend", a.k.a. claims upon the body. Anyone else like watching this cheesy stuff?
I haven't seen this one, but I love cheesy movies.
