Dennis Hopper followed the enormous success of Easy Rider with this exuberant passion project – a delirious, free-wheeling epic production shot in Central America with an incredible cast (including Peter Fonda, Kris Kristofferson, Russ Tamblyn, Michelle Phillips, Tomas Milian and Sam Fuller) and an ambition to re-invent American cinema.

Co-written by Hopper and Rebel Without a Cause screenwriter Stewart Stern, The Last Movie follows a Hollywood movie crew in the midst of making a western in a remote Peruvian village. Despite being written off by Hollywood, the movie remains thrillingly innovative and remarkably contemporary – a film that is equal parts self-discovery, reinvention, and hallucination. Unseen for many years, this one-of-a-kind film can finally be experienced back on the big screen in this lovingly restored restoration.
