Messenger (2005) - Trailer (Documentary)

Documentary (2006) 26 minutes ~ Color

Many things set the city of New York apart from the rest of the country, and one such thing is the bike messenger. Though they do exist in most major cities in the US, the New York City bike messenger seems to be the most iconic. Speaking of iconic, Joe Mauceri a/k/a Kamikaze is New York’s most legendary and probably most daring messenger. Kamikaze earned his nickname because of his near-suicidal tactics of hanging onto the backs of trucks and weaving in and out of traffic. At 50 years of age, he has seen and done it all, during his 25-year stint as a bike messenger, and amazingly he is still going strong.
