It’s amazing he lived as long as he did.

No big story, Hoppers family just turned Fonda away from the funeral. I'm sure he left with a sigh of relief.

Just because people are famous, good looking and rich, DOES NOT automatically make them good people.

The word "dirtbag" comes to mind. I knew he was nuts, but....WOW!

Hopper extreme behabiour is also what has given us those incredible performances. I'm surprised you didnt mention Apocalypse Now. He portrayed a very realistic nutcase.

When he was caste for the psychopath role in the movie Blue velvet, he said he was made for that part.  I guess he wasn't kidding.

I'll always remember Hopper for his "eggplant" scene with Christopher Walken in the movie "True Romance."

More proof that the line between genius and nutcase is often paper thin.

Dennis Hopper lived across the street from us in 1970 in Studio City, California. I was a little kid. I remember he always had the coolest trash. 😂 I remember once he had a giant Jefferson Airplane poster framed in glass. It was broken. I wanted it so bad, but my mom said No! He moved a couple of months later. I wish I had that poster still. It was so rad. ❤

He was basically a carny with money. He died from what my doctor said is the most painful way to go. The bone cancer causes tumors to grow on the nerves that are in the bones. No escape

Fonda allegedly ripped Dennis off on the movie,which was Hopper's brainchild.

Why do people elevate actors who have no regard for others. He didn't do anything for anyone else, only to gratify his own base desires.

Personally, I don't want to leave this world angry and vengeful. It's sad.

I think one of his greatest role was in true Romance very few people could pull that off

He was one of the many crazies of Laurel Canyon...

What a truly reckless and sick person. His poor kids.

He was so scary in that movie with Isabella Rossellini (briefly pictured with him when he’s huffing oxygen). Blue Velvet, I think. That was a twisted movie. I couldn’t wait for it to be over. He was good as a crazy, deranged person. R.I.P. Dennis

Hopper and Fonda based their "EASY RIDER" characters on Dave Crosby and Jim McGuinn of The Byrds, who played Jane Fonda's birthday party in 1965 while their single "Mr Tambourine Man" was topping the charts. McGuinn wrote and sang theme song to "EASY RIDER" and the Byrds song "Wasn't Born To Follow" was the only song played in its entirety in the film. Hopper also shot a photo session of The Byrds in 1967.

I went to the same high school as Dennis Hopper about eight years after he was a student there. Some of the teachers had still not recovered from their experience with him. I think he was their worst nightmare and they still needed to vent periodically.

He took the ‘no boundaries’ thing beyond its, umm, boundaries . .
