Its been a while since I posted my movie critique, but this past Sunday we watched "The worlds fastest Indian" starring Antony Hopkins. Very good flick. Hopkins did a fantastic job portraying "Burt", a man who to this day holds the world record for that fastest speed set under 1000cc's. Done on the salt flats of Utah. Very inspirational moving film. He broke his own record 9 times. The last being in 1967 which still stands. he did this on a 1929 (I believe) Indian motorcycle. Tim and Gerry may recognize the bike  |

On a sidenote,Indian Motorcycles were made in my hometown of Springfield Mass.,right in my old neighborhood where I grew up. |

I figured you were going to say Tonto and that the Lone Ranger was finally seeking out revenge for the time Tonto left him surrounded by indians with the last words of "What do you mean, 'we' white man?"

It was partially filmed down here in NZ-the locals loved mixing with a big time movie star
