Dennis Hopper 13 April 10

Section: article

Categories: Film / Mention

I love how Dennis Hopper speaks, moves, looks, and acts. I love all of his roles, including the ones where he was young and I sometimes sense how he felt intimidated by his co-actors, such as his role in The Sons of Katie Elder (see my comments &rarr John Wayne (a terribly underestimated personality and actor, in my opinion), as well in Rebel Without a Cause, with James Dean.

And of course there are the films Easy Rider (&rarr) and Der amerikanische Freund (see my previous entry here in acoolsha.org).

His role as Victor Drazen (en.wikipedia.org → Season one of 24 ) is acerbic and unforgettable.

I am thinking of him and rewatching the films I have available while concerned about his failing health now in Los Angeles.
