The Wild
One (1953)
In director Laslo Benedek's sub-genre-defining motorcycle
gang film:
- the opening credits sequence and the image of leather-jacketed,
anti-hero Johnny Strabler (Marlon Brando), leader of the motorcycle
group "The Black Rebels" approaching on the highway
- the scene of the bikers dragging on the street for
beers
- the memorable scene in which Johnny responds to the
question: "What are you rebelling against?" with "What've
you got?"
- the scene of a group of rival cyclists circling sheriff's
daughter Kathie (Mary Murphy) and terrorizing her
- Kathie's rescue and moonlit motorcycle ride on the
back of Johnny's motorcycle and their scene in the park
