G-MANN ◊ 2009-08-10 14:33	Is it OK to list this, Antoine?

G-MANN ◊ 2009-08-10 15:00	They show a clip from this film, the opening "Bat Country" scene. Since most of the vehicles in this come from archive footage (some of it shot by Thompson and his own crew) I wasn't sure whether to give it 1 or 2 stars. Obviously things like 2 second clips of tanks in war montages is 1 star, but there's a bit about Thompson's time with the Hell's Angels where we see old footage of them on their bikes cruising in a big convoy. That's not exactly "background". -- Last edit: 2009-08-10 15:05:18
