I didn’t realize it until re-watching it last weekend, but Hopper had a small role in Cool Hand Luke (one of the truly great American films, if’n you ask me)
My favorite Hopper performance will always be as Frank Booth in Blue Velvet, though I know that movie is *far* from everyone’s cup of tea!
In dreaaams, I waaalk with you.... ;-)

I'll see your raise
and double it. Maybe we can agree that he has some conservative leanings relative to the crowd he runs with?

Damn. Hope they caught it in time.From the article:
Asked about Hopper's prognosis, Maydew said, "We're hoping for the best." He would not elaborate on the actor's condition
Highly unlikely, as the article also mentions that he was hospitalized earlier this month for "dehydration." When the word hope is used in relation to cancer, it generally doesn't end well.

"My favorite Hopper performance will always be as Frank Booth in Blue Velvet...""It's dark now".
That was a crazy role!
