A documentary profile of Mark 'Chopper' Read, one of Australia's
most notorious criminals. The film charts the life of the cult
hero, from his time in mental hospitals, via his horrific murders,
to the years spent in Australia's harsh Pentridge Prison.
When Jim Read died at the age of seventy-one, he had about seen it
all: A run-a-way at thirteen. A worldly education before entering
the ministry. Being fired from church after church because of being
a drunk. Working at various construction jobs until he had about
done it all. Being in a race with the bottle and wondering if he
would ever win. This is the story of his curiously tainted life.
If you like the "good old days," hard work, cars, girls, and even
God, you will not only enjoy this book, but may find yourself
thinking about your own life and what it means to be a boy growing
into a man, husband, father and grandfather.
For a man who died in the prime of his life, he had much to say.
Some of what he wrote is brilliant. Some is "way out, man." See
what the mind is capable of in different periods of life. See what
the mind contemplates when it is awash in various wonder drugs. The
purpose for living is a quest of everyone, at sometime. Sometimes
people figure it out -- sometimes they don't. How long does one
need to decipher the "meaning of life?"
