About

The Wild One is the original outlaw biker film that spawned a whole genre. In an iconic performance, Marlon Brando stars as antihero Johnny Strabler, the leader of The Black Rebels Motorcycle Club. The film was originally banned in the UK for its then-scandalous depiction of gang violence and it remains a potent depiction of youth rebellion.
