The film, based on a photo book about a Midwestern motorcycle club, hits theaters Friday.
and. He released back-to-back films in 2016 and now is preparing to hit the big screen again with a story that he’s been aching to tell for a while., starring Austin Butler and Tom Hardy, is a time capsule of sorts of late 1960s Chicago and the rise of motorcycle clubs.This transcript has been edited lightly for clarity:
And the interviews are unvarnished. If the photos are romantic, the interviews are quite realistic as a whole. This is just an amazing portrait of a subculture. It’s kind of everything, as a rider, you would need to kind of get to the full breadth of this very particular subculture in this very particular time.
There were also other things. You know, I grew up in Arkansas. I tell southern stories. I don’t tell Midwestern stories. This voice was something that was very foreign to me. This dialect was scary. I didn’t grow up around motorcycle culture. I’m really not very interested in contemporary motorcycle gangs or biker gangs or that whole thing. I’m not into it.
Well, you really created space for your actors to shine in this film. And I’d like to talk first about Tom Hardy, who stars as a sort of motorcycle club boss. There’s a nod to the 1953 filmstarring Marlon Brando, which is said to have inspired the club idea. How much, though, was Hardy channeling Brando for this film?
And he thought that maybe this character grew up watching James Cagney, grew up watching Marlon Brando. So his voice is 100% an interpretation of these actors that he felt like this character would have grown up watching. And the whole thing is a bit of a performance within a performance. She had this very particular status where she was an insider in the club because she was married to this guy, Benny, but she was an outsider because she was a woman. And she was very quick to call them out on all their shenanigans and everything else. And so it really did feel like a natural fit to have this thing narrated by this woman.
Mike spent a lot of his youth growing up in Chicago, and if you catch him on the right night, he can fall into a pretty thick Chicago accent. And this guy sounded like Mike Shannon. No, it’s not our first collaboration at all. And actually, the song that’s over the credits is a song called, which came out in 2005.He absolutely beat me to it. And I saw this book in 2003 and decided I would write a movie one day; he saw it and decided he’d write that song., which is a very small independent film we shot in Arkansas, Lucero did the entire score for. T, my brother did a solo album absolutely inspired byMud, they do a song over the end credits.
