A short film from Kenneth Anger that explores, among other things, themes of hero/rebel worship, motorcycles, "cool" and even religion and Nazism.
Like it or hate it, the American Nazi Party (which I'm sure was increasingly popular in 1963) protested the film because they said it disrespected their flag. So, I guess if the Nazis are against it, it makes me for it in some associative order.
There's no dialogue outside of a persistent soundtrack of rock and roll music of the time, which doesn't necessarily tell a story as much as highlights the vague and ephemeral nature of "rebelliousness" or "cool."
