EASY RIDER 1969



The original title of the film was "The Loners"
Peter Fonda, Dennis Hopper, and Jack
Nicholson were actually smoking marijuana
on camera. LSD, however, was not actually
used during the acid scene, as Fonda has stated.
During Jack Nicholson's "UFO" speech, Dennis
Hopper was intent on getting him very stoned on
marijuana. The laughing that eventually broke up
his speech was not planned, and when Nicholson
repeats the line "it . . . it . . .
would be devastating . . . " it was the next take.
Captain America's (Peter Fonda's) chopper
was so "squirrely" to ride that at one point
Jack Nicholson (who was on the back) squeezed
his knees on Fonda's side to balance himself
and broke one of Fonda's ribs.

Capitan America
FRANKLIN MINT Harley-Davidson [B11WL73]

Both the Captain America bike and the Billy Bike
were designed and built by an African-American
bike builder named Ben Hardy.
It was one of the first films to make extensive
use of previously released musical tracks
rather than a specially written film score.
This is common with films now but was
quite unusual at the time.
