I saw this meme and didn’t know if anyone else did it yet, but it fits

(Benny should totally sit on his lap, maybe it would fix his attitude 😭)

i know it's so obvious but (spoilers ahead) the parallel scenes with benny at a bar alone at the beginning and end of the film make me so crazy. in the first he is alone but only physically - in every way except the physical he is backed and protected and defended by Johnny and the club, and those colors that he refuses to take off represent that protection, and the only way they get him to leave is to literally, physically throw him out the door and beat him. in the second he's not physically alone, he's there with people he knows, protected from physical violence, but when he's told the news about johnny's death, he pays for his drink, quietly gets up, and walks out with no fanfare. and then turns in his colors shortly after.

#the bikeriders #benny #johnnybenny #favourite films #he still loved the club (and johnny) and remained a part of it - despite the monster it was becoming - despite riding with other clubs #but the second he learned johnny was dead there was no reason to stay no reason to keep riding #'i know that something's missing inside - something's died - his heart is out in the streets'

i will say regarding the scene jeff talked about being super homoerotic, before i saw the movie i was like yeah all right he's exaggerating to get the fujoshis interested, i get it, get that bag i respect the hustle. but no. he wasn't exaggerating. at all.

#like i stopped breathing #when the scene ended my friend leaned over to me and whispered 'MASTERFUL camerawork'#the bikeriders #jeff nichols #austin butler #tom hardy #favourite films #johnnybenny

Still fully and completely insane about Benny and Johnny especially when Benny is beating the everloving shit out of that one guy and Johnny yanks him back and holds him and just says “No, no, no” quietly but earnestly into his ear until he calms down. Like talk about a guy and his attack dog. Jesus Christ

Bikeriders spoilers

Thinking about Benny and the fact that he never rode again after Johnny died… did he know when he was riding to Kathy’s that it would be one of, if not the last time on his bike? Did he go out to ride the day after coming home and sit in the saddle for a few minutes before getting up and deciding to walk instead? Did he try riding through the same streets he used to ride with Johnny and the others and discover that the memory was too painful? Was it a formal full stop all at once, a conscious choice, or did he just gradually lose interest in going out until Kathy noticed actual dust on the chrome?

it's played for laughs (sorta) that the only time benny gets really emotional, aside from the end of the film, is when he's afraid he'll lose his foot and have his ability to ride taken away, but if you consider that like, "riding" and "the club" are one and the same to him, it's sad too. i doubt he was thinking of it in quite this way but he didn't want to lose his community. :(
