OT: RIP Dennis HopperPosted by Ben King
Another great actor/director, the great Dennis Hopper, lost his struggle with prostate cancer and died this morning in Venice Beach.
RIP Easy Rider ![]() For instant answers to more than one hundred common FCP questions, check out the LAFCPUG FAQ Wiki here : [www.lafcpug.org]
Acting was only part of him. He was a GREAT DIRECTOR. He was a visionary. He was a hippie. He was cool. He helped define a generation.
Rest In Peace Dennis. No more pain... and nobody yells "CUT" but you in Paradise. It's dailies with St. Peter. I will always love and miss you. When life gives you dilemmas...make dilemmanade. ![]()
I met Dennis Hopper in the elevator going up to Orion. I had a movie I wanted them to screen. I had eighteen cans of 35mm, my whole movie picture and mag. He smiled and asked me, "Who's in it?" He was really nice -- talked to me like I was a big time director. At the end of our conversation he wished me good luck.
When the elevator doors opened, he walked ahead of me to the Orion desk and whispered something to the receptionist. He turned to me and smiled. They screened my movie.
