Hoodlum Movies

Seriality and the Outlaw Biker Film Cycle, 1966-1972

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

From The Wild Angels in 1966 until its conclusion in 1972, the cycle of outlaw motorcycle films contained forty-odd formulaic examples. Hoodlum Movies is not only about the films, its focus is on why and how these films were made, who they were made for, and how the cycle developed through the second half of the 1960s and came to a shuddering halt in 1972.
