Rumblefish (1983)

This film is legend...

I first watched this film by Francis Ford Coppola on video while at High School in the mid 1980s..

Mickey Rourke is `The Motorcycle boy`, Matt Dillion is his younger brother `Rusty James`, who tries to aspire to the legend of his big brother...




Filmed in black and white, it captures the hot, sweaty, smokey,  gritty urban setting of Tulsa, with only the fish in colour...



 It is a very well made film with a great soundtrack by Stuart Copeland (The Police)

The Trailer...



That sign at the beginning with the time lapse clouds behind i have tried to replicate but can never seem to do it...


One of the best tracks on the soundtrack is `Don`t box me in`
Here is a great fan made trailer i found on youtube...
