Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 5205883, member: 1414"] [B]The World's Fastest Indian[/B]. Wanted to see this for years, never pulled the trigger. Based on a true story of Burt Munroe a New Zealand speed motorcycle racer played by Anthony Hopkins. He's a cantankerous but charming old guy. His house is a big shed/workshop. The young boy next door helps him. His parents complain about Burt, you can tell they love him and what he gives back to the kid. It is set in 1967 and Munro is working on his 1920's V-Twin Indian motorcycle. He desperately wants to get to Bonneville Utah to see how fast it will go. From there it's a wild journey will Burt meeting and befriending people of all kinds on the way there. He still holds the under 1000cc world land speed record. Really enjoyed this. The tale doesn't mirror Munro's real life but the characters are interesting and it's a good story. [/QUOTE]
