Dennis Hopper Dies at 74.

Maverick.

Iconoclast.

Rebel.

He was all of that and more.

For as much as everyone wants to say that legends don't come around every day, here is a perfect example of that theorem.

He may have been the poster boy for illegal drug use in the 60s and 70s, had a personality as volatile as a volcano full of pit bulls and made everybody in Hollywood just the teensiest bit nervous whenever he entered the room, but Dennis also made some legendary films (Easy Rider, Out of the Blue, Colors and, yes, The Last Movie) and gave us some legendary performances in films like Apocalypse Now, Blue Velvet, Hoosiers and Speed.

He was the legend that doesn't come around every day. He lived rough, raced through life and made everybody know he was around, and we're better for it.

Come, remember with me. (NSFW)



Godspeed, Dennis.

Dope out.
