    Very interesting info Rocket. That makes Dennis playing a photojournalist in Apocalypse Now seem more appropriate.

      (El_hefe @ May 30 2010,05:51) This poster got me through the teen age years
      Excellent, excellent photo!!!

       And better than the Farrah poster, IMO

              Another great quote from a so-so movie;

      In Speed he is holding the trigger to the device which would set off a huge bomb strapped around Sandra Bullocks waist....he's telling Keanu Reeves to stay back and says;

      "Come any closer and they'll be picking up your friend with a sponge''

        My single favorite Hopper scene is in True Romance, when Walken and the boys got him in his trailer (most of which, by the way, was ad-libbed, "You're a cantaloupe!" and all that).

        When he looks down, either at his cut hand or his cigarette, or both.  That look on his face.  That briefest of shadows across his face.  That resignation, yet determination. Mesmerizing.

        And (after "the Moors did so much fucking") innumerable times in my life I've impersonated him with his forefinger in the air, skewering it, going, "eh?... eh?... eh?...".
