Easy Rider -- Two hippie bikers set out to discover 'the real America' and wind up taking the ultimate bad trip. Peter Fonda, Dennis Hopper and Jack Nicholson star in the landmark American film.

Cool Hand Luke -- When Luke Jackson is arrested for drunkenly vandalizing parking meters, he is sentenced to serve time on a prison chain gang.

Bickford Warner, a.k.a. Kid Blue, is a bumbling outlaw who wants to move to the "big city" to retire from his life of crime. Arriving in the tiny town of Dime Box, Texas, he begins a series of routine jobs; cleaning spittoons, sweeping out a barbershop, slaughtering chickens, and shoveling coal into the huge kiln at the town's only factory, the Great American Ceramic Novelty Company, which manufactures the sort of cheesy ashtray sold at tourist traps in places like Atlantic City. It's not easy to blend in. The Sheriff is on his case, berating him and calling him white trash. But then again, maybe "blending in" isn't possible in this town of eccentrics, including a married man who rhapsodizes about male companionship and the Greeks, and a fire-and-brimstone preacher who is building an "aero-cycle" (a bicycle with wings) and praises the Lord for his gifts of peyote, hemp and alcohol. Eventually, though, Bickford is drawn back to a life of crime...

Academy Award winner Jack Nicholson (Best Actor, One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, 1975) stars with Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper (who also directs) in this unconventional classic which Time Magazine hails as "one of the ten most important pictures of the decade." Experience the real, uncensored '60s counterculture in this compelling mixture of drugs, sex and armchair politics. In the role that catapulted him to stardom, Jack Nicholson portrays an alcoholic attorney who hooks up with two part-time, drug-dealing motorcyclists (Fonda and Hopper) in search of their "American Dream." Heading from California to New Orleans, they sample the highs and lows of America the beautiful in a stoned-out quest for life's true meaning. Nominated for an Academy Award (1969) for Best Screenplay (written by Peter Fonda, Dennis Hopper and Terry Southern), Easy Rider continues to touch a chord with audiences of all ages.
