The Trip

Causing almost as much of an uproar as The Wild Angels was Roger Corman's LSD offering, The Trip, a film written by actor Jack Nicholson. Called ''an hour and a half commercial for LSD'' by outraged critic Judith Crist, the film follows the adventures of Paul Groves (Peter Fonda) , a fairly clean-cut fellow in the midst of a personality crisis.

Comment:
Dennis (Hopper) needed a job and he was very pleased to get this one. We had already written two scripts together, figuring if we keep going like this, we're never gonna make any more movies. People didn't wanna hire Dennis because he was a tough cookie to work with. So we shot for a couple of days in Yuma, to Big Dune and back toward L.A. Denis got some beautiful, beautiful stuff of me in the dunes, with water behind me, water going into the profile and bursting behind me, water lit by the sun. We pulled off what I felt were some of the best shots of the film. Roger used it all.
