Anthony Hopkins stars as Burt Munro, a man who never let the dreams of youth fade.
After a lifetime of perfecting his classic Indian motorcycle, Burt set off from the bottom of the world to test his bike at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah. With all odds against him, he set a new speed record and captured the spirit of his times. Burt Munro's legend lives on today - Krátké a kreslené filmy
I just watched it last night. I’m 27. I had never heard of it before. It was an emotional roller coaster. I went from crying to ecstatic to laughing multiple times.
Why have I never heard about this movie before... my dad is massive Indian fan, he'd also love this.
All the years Burt was at Bonneville from 1956-1971
1956- Burt's 1st time at Bonneville, (spectator)
1957 - Burt's 2nd time at Bonneville,(spectator)
1959- Burt's 3rd time at Bonneville, ( still as a spectator)
Burt then decided to debut with his Indian in either 1961 or 1962, it ended up being speed week of 1962.
1962 Burt's debut year - bike was 853cc, twin cam ( tail was 3 finned), s-a 883cc record at 178.971 mph (average) qualifying and runs at 171, 175, 179 mph and 182.55 mph, first time Burt went full bore with his Indian. He was named sportsman's of the year. In total Burt did 53 miles that year on the salt.
1963- Burt converted his bike to a 4 cam, also his Indian now has a single, mono- tail fin instead of the triple fin from the previous year, qualifying at 183.673 mph, first run he averaged 184 mph in the mile but at the end he was doing over 195 mph when the front connecting rod broke, ending his record attempts for 1963. His bike was still 853cc. Burt spent 2000 hours completely rebuilding the v-twin back up from the blowup run.
1964, Burt enlarged the Indian to 871cc, the Bonneville track was rough and terrible in 1964, doing a mere 50-60 mph Burt was taking a serious beating, he had to go low gear for a while then he put her in 2nd for another mile, slowly winding the throttle up, she started weaving as well so Burt kept sitting up to stabilize the bike as she was getting faster and faster, by mile 5-6 he was in top gear for awhile. Burt still managed to qualify at 184 mph, but bad weather ended his chance of running record runs.
Speed week 1964 was a total wash out, only a mere 2 days before bad weather ended running for good.
1965- a zero year for Burt. Had some low speed runs in the high 160 mph range. At the end of 1965 Burt decided to run in the s-a 1000cc class instead of the 55 inch class.
1966- s-a 1000cc record at 168.66 mph(average), qualifying at 172 mph unofficial top speed at 212 mph, Burt's Indian was 905cc, Burt was not happy with such a low average, considering he almost died and was going speeds well above that at the time of the speed wobbles. Still it was another record.
1967- Burt's Indian has a lengthened tail fin with a 203 mm hole cut into the nose cone which is for cooling for both Burt and the engine, but also inside the nose is cast iron pipes with holes in the shell at the back tail section, together they help the pressure wave escape which Burt had thought was keeping the tail from stabilizing the bike. The weight also helps the bike run true like and arrow.
Burt also enlarged his bike's displacement to 953cc, s-a 1000cc record at 184.087 mph(average), best measured mile at 188 mph, qualifying at 184/190.070 mph, he upped his old record by nearly 16 mph earning himself top record breaker of 1967 and American motorcyclist of the year. He was still a little disappointed though.
Burt knew the Indian had enough power to push it past 200 mph like it did the year prior in 1966 but one of the problems was the salt which was unfortunately wet and heavy. He estimated on every run that there was about 110 pounds of salt caked on the bike, which was able to slow the Indian down to well below it's potential top speed.
1968- Burt had carburator and magneto issues, he could only coax a lousy 155 mph from his Indian. It was still a very interesting year though because Burt's good friend Micky Thompson was there that year with his 1200 hp 1969 mustang. Micky also gave Burt a ride at 11 pm one night in the mustang.
After Burt got the Indian to where it seemed to be running like it's old self he decided to test his bike on the road in Nevada near reno which had no speed limit, getting pulled over after passing a cop at well over 100 mph, when the cop asked Burt on how fast he was going Burt replied with he was doing a lousy 160 at best, later on he told the officer that he had run at over 200 miles an hour and doing 160 is like a stroll in the bloody park. After that Burt gave up for 1968 because the Indian was not doing good and there was no point in running it on the salt.
1969, For this speed week Burt prepared more than any other year prior, he ran a qualifying run at 191 mph and his first run again at 191 mph but on his return run the Indian started running like crap again.
In 1970 Burt switched his fuel from methanol to nitromethane, even with all the adjustments he made to run his Indian on nitro the v-twin still burned out all his spare pistons. It was over for Burt who was 71 years old.
1971- Burt's 13th year at Bonneville and 10th year running his Indian, which was his last. Ran a lousy run at 148.51 mph without the shell due to strict rules, without the shell, the Indian was now seriously overgeared, he did another run with the shell on going full bore for the last time ever. Burt never ran his bike there ever again.
New Zealand film director Roger Donaldson and his crew were also at the salt in 1971, they filmed Burt doing some runs on his Indian for the documentary about him called Offerings to the God of Speed, (1971). it's a phenomenal documentary, I highly recommend people to watch it, it's so good!.
1975 - Burt's 14th and final year at bonneville, (Spectator), AMA officials said Burt could no longer officially run anymore.
In 1975 Burt sold the original and highly modified 1920 Indian chassis/ fiberglass streamline shell, both Burt ran bonneville all those years to his friend Sam Pierce. Burt took the original Indian engine home and gave Sam another one.
Back home Burt put the record breaking v-twin which he ran at bonneville into his 1924 Indian chassis, that frame was only ever run in New Zealand.
In 1977 the year before Burt Munro passed away he sold his bikes to his friend Norman Haynes, Burt sold his 1936 velocette MSS 650 and of course the world famous Indian Scout which is not the actual bike Burt ran from 1962-1971 at bonneville and set all the records on, the v-twin that sits in the frame is the original and highly modified 1920 record setting engine Burt modified but the chassis is from a 1924 Indian, that chassis Burt only ever ran in New Zealand. Both machines are on display at E Haynes and Son Hardware in Burt's hometown of Invercargil New Zealand.
So today Burt's actual 1920 Indian Scout is in two countries.
The original but highly modified 1920 chassis plus the fiberglass shell are in America, (restored) and owned by the Pierce family, the v-twin they have is a different one, not the original/ record setting one.
In New Zealand, E Haynes and Son hardware has the original and built 1920 record setting v-twin which Burt modified all his life, that sits in Burt's 1924 Indian chassis( the frame which was never used in America, only in New Zealand). And they also have Burt's other bike he worked on as well, the 1936 single cylinder Velocette mss 650.
In January of 1978 Burt passed away peacefully at home, age 78.
Over 200 people came to his funeral
Losing Burt was a massive loss to New Zealand even in America as well.
Indian motorcycles themselves were really saddened by the news of Burt's passing but they were also really proud of him.
For 20 years from the age of 14 racing was nearly everything that I lived for. I learned to do machine work, and build engines. I learned about metal and heat treating. I learned how to weld and fabricate parts. For 15 years we lost every race. But then things started to change. We won a few trophy dashes, and some heat races, and finally a few main events. Persistent devotion to becoming one of the best is one hell of a ride. And not everyone reaches their goal. I reached mine....
good for you
I will not give up, i don't hear a bell.
You've lived a life like a movie. I'm really curious about your story
This film just gets into your soul and if your a 50 year old grandad like me it just makes you feel like 18 all over again, who cares, go for it !!!
One of the most underratred movies in history.
Hi
How are you after 11 years
You still alive?
@@ilikecringe bro you directly went to point
forget silence of the lambs this is anthony hopkins at his very very best!
He was great in Remains of the day too ; - )
His kiwi accent sucked tho
Yeah his Kiwi accent really sucked.
Went to this movie on a first date with my girlfriend. She thought it was set in India... Thats ok. I forgave her. And now we're married with 2 kids...!
Remember watching Letterman, and they were interviewing Anthony Hopkins, and he introduced him I heard the name of the movie, and expected it to be about an indian guy set in New Zealand
Are the kids indian?!
Cool story bro.... 🙄
The Fastest Indian Motorbike is by far my favourite movie.
Поздравляю вас и желаю всего наилучшего
This movie just made a grown boy cry. Love the movie. But best of all love the determination of Burt Munro. My words cannot describe how great this movie is.
This movie captures the essence of all that Hollywood has now lost......
So I've not been well and having movie days and today my aunty Margaret came to keep me company and we watched this together and I just loved it. Anthony Hopkins is a brilliant actor and I love the warm way he played this role. It needs to be on everyones top 100 list.
Possibly my favorite movie of all time.
A wonderful film that is full of good feelings. Cheers!
One of he most underrated person in history.
The 360 shot of Bert and his arrival at the lake is majestic
brilliant. Anthony Hopkins at his best.. and Burt Munro is THE man
I watch this every year to keep my mind right. ;-)
Where do you watch it. Need an answer 😔😔
I remember the first time I hit 50mph on my 125, you couldn’t wipe the smile off my face for a week. Granted the road I was on I was doing over double the speed limit but oh well. I can only imagine going 200mph
Was at Bonneville Speedway yesterday.... I thought of this movie every time I seen a bike run
I love " Indian" so much... I saw this movie many many many times. (from Thailand) ...ดูหลายรอบมากเลยค่ะ ชอบมาก รักมาเลยเรื่องนี้
that's so sweet. :)
🤓 hey love❤ from India
He puts a grinding wheel into a drill chuck...
...and takes care of his toenails? You can't help but like a guy like that!
I love this movie. It's such a shame that not many people know of it, it doesn't get enough credit.
Me for one
One of my favourite movies of all times.
Yep! 100% wonderful :)
one of the best films ever made hopkins at his best so underated as a film a real hidden gem
This is one Hell of a movie & Burt was one Hell of a guy
I've seen this a few times. Yah I love it and need to see it again.Thank You David
The scene with the cop always gets me.
Even if you're not a biker, after watching this movie you'll know why we bikers ride our own sweet bikes!
VR46, Is that really you Vale?
DeeDee Stone Nah, I'm Japanese who has Suzuki GSXR1000 haha. I just love Vale so much :)
Truly one of the best films ever made ♥️
Awesome movie! 🎥.. thanks mate we are proud of Burt Munro.. great Kiwi🏍️👍🇳🇿
Great performance by Hopkins of a real life character.
The opening scene in garage, and burnt pistons with sign: sacrifices to the gods of speed, an ominous prelude of the story being told. Good movie, thnx
Speedweek starts Saturday, August 8, 2020 at Bonneville. I will have to watch this again tonight as part of the yearly tradition! :)
I am a 15 year old (new zealand) girl and this is my absolute favourite movie! Is that weird?
No not at all
Elise Simons why would that be weird
Nothing weird about that darling. Its a fantastic movie and you come from New Zealand so its normal. Being at your age its a big plus to watch movies like this.
+My Dead Gay Dad If u can't respect someone's feelings - at-least don't disrespect !!!
Elise Simons
Awesome movie! I have watched it numerous times and still get excited over the speed sequences.
Fantastic movie.
If you haven't seen it, you're missing a great movie.
My copy got shared by at least 6 people at work, pretty sure at least 4 bought the movie afterwards.
This is based on a true story and is pretty accurate.
Loved Anthony in "magic" and "silence of the lambs" but this one is my favorite, well done!
I was loaned the movie and went and bought a copy of it afterward too. Totally worth it.
I love Anthony Hopkins I watched the trailer and feel this could be a tad manic for me all that speed and noise!! Lol!
Bästa filmen av Anthony Hopkins ☺
This is one of my favorite. Love it. Sir Anthony is wonderful acting with children.
watchin' this movie @ home right now!!!!!!
That looks awesome, recently bought my first bike and now I'm obsessed with everything to do with motorcycles
Are you alive ?
I am the other Indian (from India) and I love this movie. Very raw and inspiring.
Great Actor and a Great movie!!!
Dan Favata
I agree , awesome movie !
Really enjoyed this movie, Sir Anthony Hopkins is one of the best.
one of the greatest films---and stories ever!!!
A truly great movie.
This is in my top 10. Anthony hopkins at his best in an instant classic.
This is a wonderful movie. Seriously. This is one heck of a good film. I highly recommend it.
Very inspirational movie makes you realize you can truly fly on the wings of your dreams. Special movie dear to me, put kiwi land on the map. l come from Timaru shown in the movie. It's that kiwi can do number 8 wire mentality that resonates here.
Burt was portrayed as a very warm charismatic character who although coming from the almost the sticks with a level of naivety connected magically with the very colorful characters he encountered. Just a warm hearted family movie. Appreciation to the writer(s) from penned this masterpiece and breathed life into the very fabric of every character's beingness. Truly creative artistic juggernaut(s). What a gift!!!
hey Elise, you're not weird at all, just a kiwi girl proud of this country's heritage and innovators - ignore the haters and the abusers who are just jealous of your pride in an awesome country and its people - Kia kaha
With all due respect, what is Kia kaha?
Quick google search : Kia kaha is a Māori phrase used by the people of New Zealand meaning stay strong, used as an affirmation. The phrase has significant meaning for Māori: popularised through its usage by the 28th Māori Battalion during World War II, it is found in titles of books and songs, as well as a motto.
Thank god the Brits didn't invade it, abuse the aboriginals and ship their criminals to it like they did with Australia.
My favourite movie of all time. I can watch it over and over again. Nice and friendly with no bad language. A+
A-
He doesn't sound anything like a New Zealander.
To my brother-in-law Donald McClure it has been a long time that you acquired one of my favorite movies it would be nice that I may have it returned to enjoy it once again. This is one of my favorite movies.
It is such an amazing movie .. puts a tear in my eyes every time .. such a passionate soul he was and this actor .. its like he was born to play in this movie , its simply awesome
I read a while ago that Burt Munro's children were on set during filming, and Anthony Hopkins' portrayal of their father moved them to tears, it was so accurate!
Never saw this until today. It's free on Hulu & YT movies right now. pretty much anything with Hopkins is worth a look.
I know it's been said a lot about this movie but I'll say it again, this is a great movie, one you can take your kids to see and they won't forget it and love, I promise...a movie made of a true story, what else can you ask for?
I'm a filmmaker looking for great film trailers. Wow, great trailer for a super great film!!!!
Blast from the past. Yes, I ended up watching the movie and it was great.
I have this movie, it's one you have to watch over and over.
This movie inspired me a lot.
One of the best movies I've ever watched.
Love this movie! So inspiring!
one of the World`s most magical motorcycles combined in this trailer with one of the most magnificent bands ever > Indian meets the Cult!!!
He said in an interview he was tired of bad guy and sad roles he recently had. Can't blame him to enjoy such a movie shoot.
I downloaded this movie some 15 years ago i think. Didnt know what it was and was wondering about the title. I imagined it was some odd story about an indian running fast or something, or some other invented stupid story. I was wrong.
I just thought about this movie again, as i was telling my sis that urine is a good phosphate fertilizer for your plants and well, such a scene is in this movie as he asks the neighbour boy to 'water' his lemon tree ;]
Its a great little movie; great story, great acting, great camera work, and even though i am not 'into bikes', it grabbed me and kept me glued to the screen for the duration. No politics, no bs, no hidden messages that they want you to accept. Just a great story.
If you havent seen it, you should ;]
Great movie, I like how he cuts his grass!
I just watched it and haven’t laughed that deeply in a while 😂
Best movie ever made!
Yeah it would be.....If he sounded remotely like a New Zealander.
Such an awesome flick!
Brilliant story 😊
Possibly my favorite movie of all times, based on a true story too!
Kiwi legends...Burton munro, John Britten, Bruce mclaren, possum bourne and Chris Dickson
....Denny Hulme, Scott Dixon, Peter Blake, Russell Coutts.

Great movie!
I heard The Scorpions and saw Anthony Hopkins, I was sucked in. 😁
Anyone who rides knows the feel of tucking yourself on your bike like within the first 20 seconds of this clip doing 90+ mph hour. You know the feel for speed and the feeling of freedom, with your bike as your limitation to really fast.
The name of the song is called Police on my Back ,it’s by The Clash it’s not The Scorpions, The Scorpions are an awesome band though
looks like a good film!
