69 FILM / FILM FEST
69

To kick off its "in-depth, yearlong exploration of the films of 1969," the Northwest Film Forum screens a pair of cultural heavyweights. Easy Rider stars Dennis Hopper, Peter Fonda, and Jack Nicholson along with tons of drugs and rock and an ending that mindfucked an entire generation. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid stars Paul Newman, Robert Redford, bank robberies, and an ending that's an artful mindfuck in its own right. (Northwest Film Forum, 1515 12th Ave, 869-7963. Easy Rider 6:45 pm, Butch Cassidy 8:30 pm, $9.) by David Schmader

All loyal queers will of course boycott because the film has 'Sundance' in the name and that is a Utah event name.

Both Easy Rider and Butch Cassidy are excellent choices. Two of my all time favorite 1960s movies.

The ending of Easy Rider was a mindfuck? The '60s really were a more innocent time.
