MOVIE The World’s Fastest Indian

“If it’s hard, work harder; if it’s impossible, work harder still. Give it whatever it takes, but do it” - Burt Munro

As a young lmmaker in the 1970s, Roger Donaldson had worked on a documentary about Burt Munro called “O erings to the God of Speed.” After making the New Zealand classic Smash Palace in 1981, the lm director, producer and writer went on to have a successful career in Hollywood. In 2005 Donaldson was nally able to make his lm about Munro, with Anthony Hopkins in the leading role. In 1967, Burt Munro is a folk hero in Invercargill, known for his friendly easy-going personality and having the fastest motorcycle in Australasia. He’s also known for his habits such as revving his motorcycle early in the morning, urinating on his lemon tree, and not mowing the lawn. However, Munro has a dream - to travel to Bonneville Speedway in the United States to test his motorcycle’s capabilities. Cruise Martinborough’s Drive-In Movie on Friday evening starting at 6pm, The World’s Fastest Indian tells the tale of how he achieves it.
