Dennis Lee Hopper (May 17, 1936 – May 29, 2010) was an American actor, filmmaker, photographer, and artist. He attended the Actors Studio, making his first television appearance in 1954, and soon after appeared in two films with James Dean. In the next ten years he made a name in television, and by the end of the 1960s had appeared in several films. Hopper also began a prolific and acclaimed photography career in the 1960s.
In 1969 Hopper directed and starred in Easy Rider, winning an award at the Cannes Film Festival, and was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay as co-writer. Journalist Ann Hornaday wrote: "With its portrait of counterculture heroes raising their middle fingers to the uptight middle-class hypocrisies, Easy Rider became the cinematic symbol of the 1960s, a celluloid anthem to freedom, macho bravado and anti-establishment rebellion." Film critic Matthew Hays notes that, "no other persona better signifies the lost idealism of the 1960s than that of Dennis Hopper."

Plot: The 'Rapture', the end of the world, heaven, and Bono - this 20 minute mockumentary addresses each one of these topics, and more. Radio evangelist Harold Camping predicted Jesus would come down to earth and that the Rapture would begin on May 21st, 2011. We travel to the heart of Christian America, Colorado Springs, to capture the action on that fated day. Bono also came to Colorado on May 21st, 2011 - could there be a connection? We explore this burning question, as well. And if Jesus and Bono held an arm wrestling contest, who would win? Find out in 'Jesus vs. Bono', the greatest story never told.

Plot: Video installation piece which features a collaboration of many artists that is inspired by Nicholas Ray's classic Rebel Without A Cause. Korine whose work has often responded to street culture, violence, and subcultural transgression, directs two female gangs to fight with machetes in a Los Angeles parking lot. Franco commissions legendary tattoo artist Mark Mahoney to carve the late actor Brad Renfro's first name into his arm with a switchblade. Filmed in real time, imagery of the carving is juxtaposed with interviews with friends of Renfro, including actors Scott Haze and Jim Parrack. The installation features two never-made scenes from Ray's original draft of Rebel Without A Cause, one featuring a man on fire, and the second, a woman being whipped. The two performances are played side by side in one continuous 20-minute take and the overall effect is has been been described as "beautiful and harrowing."

Maverick actor/filmmaker Dennis Hopper appeared on the Merv Griffin Show in 1971 as a disenfranchised idealist having recently fallen from Hollywood's good graces. After riding high on the success of "Easy Rider" he made "The Last Movie" which won the top prize at the Venice Film Festival but was trashed by critics and moviegoers in America. He certainly stands out on this panel which includes fellow actors James Brolin and Diane Baker as well as baseball legend Willie Mays. While many of the original tapes of the Merv Griffin Show were preserved, this one was lost and this clip is an example of a show preserved on color kinescope. Merv Griffin had over 5000 guests appear on his show from 1963-1986. Footage from the Merv Griffin Show is available for licensing to all forms of media through...
A documentary on Dennis Hopper I recorded off TV a few years back, a bit rare I think. Having read recently that his cancer has spread and he most likely won't be around much longer, I wanted to upload again as he is a true original talent and lead an wild interesting life. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0362523/
Christopher Walken & Dennis Hopper are gods among men. The music is The Flower Duet from Lakmé by Léo Delibes. http://youtu.be/8Qx2lMaMsl8 ——————————————————————————————————————— Tarantino himself has named "The Sicilian scene" as one of his proudest moments. "I had heard that whole speech about the Sicilians a long time ago, from a black guy living in my house. One day I was talking with a friend who was Sicilian and I just started telling that speech. And I thought: 'Wow, that is a great scene, I gotta remember that'." (From the unrated director's cut DVD commentary.) http://youtu.be/fXxhbrsuDSQ?t=2s
