It’s always sad to see the acting legends fall. Hollywood hasn’t got too many legends left standing, and certainly doesn’t seem to be replacing them. I’m talking about the icons – the acting chameleons that could almost morph into any role.
Dennis Hopper was such an actor.
Hopper will be forever identified with many of the cult classics of the late sixties & seventies. The Trip, Easy Rider, Mad Dog Morgan, & Apocalypse Now to name just a few. Hopper came to age as an actor at the time when an independent spirit and rebel filmmaking attitude was sweeping over Hollywood. Hopper had the perfect kind of “crazy” for that.
For me, It wasn’t till the early nineties that I began to really appreciate much of Hopper’s work. I will always remember the scene in True Romance when he squared off against Christopher Walken as my beginning in the appreciation of the late great Dennis Hopper.
It would be almost a decade later when I got to meet the man in-person. It was summer 2001 and Hopper was in Toronto filming the movie Knockaround Guys. I was just beginning to tail the autograph hounds in my quest to gain their trust and agreement in a documentary series I would eventually produce. (It would be a few years later when Hounds would finally premiere on Canadian TV.)
Waiting for Dennis Hopper to return to his downtown hotel after a long day of filming – he couldn’t have been nicer taking a few minutes to sign this beautiful 11″x14″ color photograph ($159.00) from the iconic film, Easy Rider.
