Hawkwind On Film
Hawkwind are curiously under-represented on celluloid during the 1970s - read all about it here - but this page includes most of the film/footage that exists (and at the highest definition). Click on individual videos to unmute, though note that some films are silent.
If you're interested in other films that may or may not exist, go here and scroll down to [APPENDIX 4] A 70s Filmography.
