Hells Angels Forever

HELLS ANGELS FOREVER
The true story of an American Phenomenon
What starts off as a squadron of American daredevil bombers in World War II, branded by society as renegades, turns into a revealing ride into the world of honor, violence, and undying passion for motorcycles on the road.
The highlight of this movie has to be an interview w/ Jerry Garcia of the grateful dead. The interviewer asks Garcia if he was afraid of the Angels, and Garcia replies that he was. The interviewer then asks Garcia what the attraction was - and Garcia replies with a Smile - "They're really good in all the violent spaces."
It's also interesting to note that Garcia personally put up a large portion of the money to help make this movie happen.

Eleanor Mannikkain writing in All Movie Guide says "In this superficial look at the "Hell's Angels"bikers, directors Richard Chase , Kevin Keating , and Leno Gast have chosen to let the inarticulate bikers offer confused explanations for their Nazi SS insignias and swastikas, and why they hit "disobedient" women. At the same time, they are unfairly persecuted since it is only a few members who have been out of line, while the majority of bikers only go after those who infringe on their autonomy. As for the charges that they deal drugs and are involved in racketeering, they are false -- (although the bikers were not asked how they could afford not to work)."
This is a difficult film to find on DVD in UK or USA but I managed to locate a DVD specialist on EBAY who had it in stock.- unavailable at Amazon.com
