Christopher Jones takes a beater for some casual stunt cycling on a San Diego pier. It’s 1968 and the Tennessee-born actor is making his screen debut as the title character in Chubasco, playing a troubled young man who seeks to set his life straight by working on a tuna boat. Jones went on to star as the rock star/presidential candidate Max Frost in the cult hit Wild in the Streets.
Snipe: “Christopher Jones does a bicycle stunt while relaxing on San Diego pier between scenes for Warner Bros.’ ‘CHUBASCO,’ Technicolor picture in which he stars with Richard Egan, Susan Strasberg, and Ann Sothern.”
