Marty I'm sure I speak for everyone here, we are happy to see you back and hope you enjoyed your time off. When I heard the alert on FOX that Hopper had passed away I was so sad, I knew he was very sick and it was near the end, he was one of my husbands favorite actors, he loved all his movies. I have mentioned it here before my husband died of prostate cancer much younger at 57 and I know how he must have suffered at the end, its very painful, but he no longer suffers....May he rest in peace.....
I cut my teeth on the easy Rider move back in college. It defined the wild early 70s.
Sandra I feel your pain having spent the last few weeks of my father in law's life with the Hell that is Prostate Cancer. You are right they are in a more pleasant place.
I loved Dennis Hopper in Blue Velvet...the ether huffing maniac.

MARTY GOOD TO SEE YOU ARE BACK AT THE BLOG.
I had a friend who died of prostate cancer. It was ugly.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, Marty, it's great to have you back.
Thanks, Sandra, Bobcat & Jim! I am SANE NOW, although there are some who would beg to differ...
ReplyDeleteI, too, loved Dennis Hopper. I enjoyed his TV commercials for that financial planning company.
Wasn't Dennis the kid in "Gunfight at the OK Corral", the last person shot, by Kirk Douglas?
ReplyDeleteLet's not forget "Apocalypse Now"! And I remember that run of him as an NFL ref! I loved those!
