- More about Dirty Real: Exile on Hollywood and Vine with the Gin Mill Cowboys
Hollywood tried to sell a begrimed vision of itself to the world with Easy Rider, but Peter Stanfield captures the pivotal moment when it did so with great care for the historical record and critical acuity.
Format: Hardback
Length: 344 pages
Publication date: 13 May 2024
Publisher: Reaktion Books
Hollywood, inspired by the success of Easy Rider, embarked on a cycle of films that sought to present a gritty and authentic portrayal of the underbelly of society. This movement was led by a group of talented individuals, including Dennis Hopper, Peter Fonda, Monte Hellman, Jack Nicholson, Kris Kristofferson, and Sam Peckinpah, who embraced a bohemian lifestyle and donned soiled shirts and scuffed boots to counter the glamour and phoniness of Tinseltown. Peter Stanfield's documentary captures this pivotal moment in Hollywood's history, with great care for the historical record and a refined critical acuity. It showcases the efforts of these individuals to sell a begrimed vision of themselves to the world, and the challenges they faced in doing so.
