Great actor, Dennis Hopper. I reckon his 'Frank Booth' in David Lynches Blue Velvet is one of the creepiest villians in movie history. He was great in every movie he did including the Aussie movie Mad Dog Morgan. According to legend, he did the whole movie high on acid and mescalin which must have made him fun to work with ;D. It was a typical crap Aussie movie saved by a brilliant bit of acting by Dennis. Check it out.
He lived and played hard. Fancy something ordinary like a dodgy prostate taking him out.They just don't make actors like him any more. RIP.
