Get a look inside the life of one of Montana's most famous sons, and definitely most dangerous, in the new Johnny Knoxville produced flick "Being Evel."

Knoxville calls the legendary Evel Knievel his hero and honors him in the new film that opens in select cites today. I was thrilled to find out that you can see Being Evel locally at the Roxy Theater starting on Friday, August 29th.

IMDB describes the plot of the film:

Being Evel tells not just the incredible story behind the myth of 1970s American daredevil icon and pioneer for today´s Extreme Sports scene Robert "Evel" Knievel, but also the previously untold and very much darker tale of the man behind the flamboyant cape; a one-time outlaw whose wildly dangerous career spanned 75 ramp-to-ramp motorbike jumps and saw him break every bone in his body.

Being Evel was a Sundance Film Festival Official Selection for 2015 and Knoxville said in his interview on the Jimmy Kimmel show that Evel Knievel was not a daredevil, he was a superhero. He went on to say that Evel single-handedly set the standards for the X-Games and showmanship in general.
