Plot

Based on Peter Biskind's revelationary book, Easy Riders Raging Bulls is a gobsmacking and addictive insight into the cocaine fuelled genius of Hollywood's movers, shakers and makers during a period of cinema noted not just for its success but it's willingness to take risks and embrace originality. Though considering the hedonistic behaviour of most involved, it's a miracle they even knew who they were.
