THE WILD ONE (1953)

László Benedek directed and Stanley Kramer produced The Wild One, a 1953 American crime film. It is well known for Marlon Brando's portrayal as Johnny Strabler, whose persona became a cultural icon in the 1950s. The Wild One is regarded as the first outlaw biker film and the first to investigate outlaw motorcycle gang violence in the United States.

The Wild One, Brando's first motorbike film, solidified his reputation as a bad guy with a tender side. He plays Johnny Strabler, the head of a motorcycle gang that falls upon a tiny California community, in a performance that has spawned a slew of imitators. His desire for destruction is quelled when he falls in love with Kathie (Mary Murphy), the sweet-natured daughter of the local police chief (Robert Keith). The advent of a rival gang boss (Lee Marvin), who adds further mayhem, complicates going straight.
