Along for the Ride is a documentary film that explores the highs,
lows, and ultimately the phoenix-like ascension of iconic Hollywood
maverick Dennis Hopper, as seen through the eyes of his mysterious
longtime "right-hand man," Satya de la Manitou. Filmmaker Nick Ebeling
chronicles the unlikely duo's incredible 40-year journey, an enduring
and intense brotherhood as intimately complex as Hopper's own legendary
career. De la Manitou re-examines his dedication to his friend's
idiosyncratic and uncompromising genius, reminiscing with a fascinating
cast of characters--Hopper's co-conspirators, family and friends--and
those that were also, unwittingly or willingly, there.
Featuring Frank Gehry, David Hopper, Ed Ruscha, Tony Shafrazi, Wim
Wenders, David Lynch, Michael Madsen, Dean Stockwell, Russ Tamblyn,
Linda Manz, Damon Albarn & Jamie Hewett, Julian Schnabel, and Dwight
Yoakam.
Hat & Beard Press is pleased to release the companion book which
includes cutting-room-floor material, plus original essays, interviews,
and never-before-seen photographs. Each book comes with a digital
download of the film.
