In 1981, two students at Columbia University hired a young New York theater     
actor and set out to make a 1950s biker flick that was clearly intended as a    
homage to both László Benedek's The Wild One and Kenneth Anger's Scorpio Rising.
The students were Kathryn Bigelow and Monty Montgomery, the actor was Willem    
Dafoe in his first credited movie role, and the film is concerned with leather  
and chrome much more than with plot or dialogue. It's a thoroughly deserved     
triumph of style over substance, and while it would be somewhat pretentious     
to call this a cult classic, it's definitely way more than just a curiosity.
