I saw it a couple of months ago. I agree, it was pretty cool to watch. They say this is the movie that started it all!

RE: "The Wild One"

The funny thing is, most Bikers of the day prefered Chino's style over Johnny's. After the movie, the whole culture shifted.

I have often wondered if Brando would have been in the Bumblebee shirt, would the disassociated, disgruntled, rebelliousBiker look of today be long sleeve Yellow and Black stripes? [sm=confused06.gif]
