It's a tie...!

My favorite road movie from this class would have to be Girl on a Motorcyle or Vegabond. I liked these two movies because I had never seen or heard about them before. I wouldn't have seen them if it was not for this class and they were unlike any movies I have ever seen. It seems like movies are losing originality in plot and these two movies were unlike that. Girl on a Motorcycle was a little cheesy and the male gaze in the film was absolutely ridiculous but I enjoyed watching something and being able to analyze it with the tools we were given in class. Vegabond was...well I will just call it interesting. You never knew how the main character was going to act, and you never knew her next move. This was a difficult blog because I will always like Easy Rider as well....but Girl on a Motorcyle and Vegabond were new to me and I like older movies.
