Amazing Saw this film for the first time when I was about 13. I'm now further past 30 than I would like to be and it still breaks my heart every time I watch it. I always cry, through laughter, tenderness, sadness, pride, pratically every emotion possible! Cher's character is amazing - so flawed but with a fierce love for her child that would teach a lot of parents a thing or two. Eric Stolz, what can I say. He is absolutely awesome. Everyone should see this film, it is incredible and completely inspiring.

Sam Elliott also leaves a lasting impression as a biker who is much gentler than he appears. An amazing screenplay and the flawless direction of Peter... more info
One of my favorite This is a top film if you like biker based films. Sam Elliott is really hot in this one. You'd have to have a heart of stone to not be touched by this film. Best i've seen Cher in.
