In the 1970s an unlikely hero caught the imagination of the US with his feats of unbelievable and foolish daring. But what inspired a small town boy to attempt such life-threatening stunts? Knievel was desperate to escape his hometown of Butte, Montana, and polished his motorcycle skills accordingly. A number of stunts ensued but it was ironically his disasterous attempt to clear the fountains at Caesar’s Palace, Las Vegas, that catapulted him into the headlines. He was in a coma for 29 days but even this did not put a stop to his antics. Take a leap into the life of Evel Knievel., Biopic of the legendary showman. Knievel started out as a miner in Montana before his gift for death-defying motorbike stunts led to fame and fortune. Naturally, women, booze and broken bones came as part of the territory., Biopic of the famous stunt motorcyclist looking at his public and private life. From humble beginnings as a miner, the American daredevil shot to national fame because of his death-defying stunts and devil-may-care attitude., Robert Knievel was a young man with a wild streak and a love for motorcycles who found a way to make the most of both when he got a motorcycle and learned to do tricks with it. As Knievel’s stunts became more elaborate, he gained the nickname “Evel,” and he put together a team of fellow stunt riders known as Evel Knievel’s Motorcycle Daredevils. By the end of the ’60s, Evel was the most famous stunt rider in the world. Despite suffering more than his share of injuries (including a close brush with death after missing his exit ramp while jumping over the fountain at Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas), in 1974 he attempted the greatest feat of his life — jumping over Idaho’s Snake River Canyon in a specially designed rocket car. This take on Knievel’s story is a made-for-cable biopic that looks at the public and private lives of America’s supreme daredevil. George Eads stars as Knievel, while Jaime Pressly plays his wife Linda and Beau Bridges co-stars as her father. This was the second feature film about Knievel’s life; George Hamilton played the stunt rider in a 1971 film also called Evel Knievel, while Evel Knievel played himself in the movie Viva Knievel!.
