Biskind’s Easy Riders, Raging Bulls is the wild chronicle of the 1970s Hollywood revolution — when filmmakers wrestled control from the studios and turned cinema into counterculture. It’s a fever dream of art, ego, and excess: Scorsese, Coppola, Altman, and their crew of beautiful disasters rewriting the rules and then overdosing on their own freedom. Both a celebration and an autopsy, it captures the decade when cinema mattered like life and death.
