THE FULL MONTE
Click here to read part one of a just published interview with cult director Monte Hellman from 1988. He is best remembered for his two off-beat 1960s westerns Ride in the Whirlwind and The Shooting both starring ’60s starlet Millie Perkins (pictured) and Jack Nicholson; the classic road movie Two-Lane Blacktop (1971) with Warren Oates, Dennis Wilson of the Beach Boys, and James Taylor; and Cockfighter (1974) with Oates and Perkins.

Check out this video montage with eerie music of the interconnected relationships between Lana Wood, Natalie Wood, Robert Wagner, and Jill St. John. The creator makes a lot of yet-to-be-proved accusations.
