    RIP.

    I always loved his movies. He was great opposite Keifer Southerland in "Flashback."

    It's sad that he had to endure such an ugly divorce battle just before he died.

    He was a great actor, and director too, but somewhat questionable as a good person.

    Yeah from everything I've heard he was very much an ass in general. Still, he was a great talent

    RIP.

    Saw True Romance again the other day, fantastic movie and a solid performance by Hopper as the father (anyone remember the scene in the trailer with him and mafioso Christopher Walken?).

    Besides his famous Easy Rider, the American Friend is an overlooked movie where Hopper does great acting.

    Time to purge out all the 60's and 70's stars. With some of the 80's. Its when all the super-icons were created. Gonna be a rough decade for celebrity deaths. :(
