Easy Rider

I really liked this film and the message it carried. During the time it was made the general feeling of society was to go against the "norm" and that is exactly what the two main characters in the film do. The cinematic style of the film was even against typical standards of cinema. For example the transitions in certain scenes cuts in a way that I have never seen before. Short clips from the next scene are cut intravenously with the previous scene as opposed to a fade out and in or typical transition. Also, the end of the movie was in every way anti-"norm" or simple the oposite of typical movie endings. It was completely not-expected yet it played a large part in why the movie was so successful.

Everything about the movie combined together made the movie what it was, and I thought it was a great movie. The acting, the shots, the storyline, everything; great movie.
