Ann Arbor Film Festival 2010

A conjuration of the presiding Princes, Angels and Spirits of MARS, formed as a “high” view of the Myth of the American Motorcyclist. The Power Machine seen as tribal totem, from toy to terror. Thanatos in chrome and black leather and bursting jeans. Part I: Boys and Bolts (masculine fascination with the Thing that Goes). Part II: Image Maker (getting high on heroes: Dean’s Rebel and Brando’s Johnny; the True View of J.C.) Part III: Walpurgis Party (J.C. wallflower at the cycler’s Sabbath). Part IV: Rebel Rouser (the Gathering of the Dark Legions, with a message from Our Sponsor). -Kenneth Anger
