The late great Dennis Hopper gets a UMR page, and about time too! 😉
I’ve seen 24 of the 79 films on the chart. My favorites include – Speed, Waterworld, Colors, Giant, Rebel Without a Cause, Cool Hand Luke, Gunfight at the OK Corral, Sons of Katie Elder, True Grit, True Romance, The Osterman Weekend and Apocalypse Now.
Bruce I’ve watched Blue Velvet a couple of times, not one of my favorites. It contains one of his most celebrated performances but looking at your post Joel Hirschhorn didn’t seem impressed, it’s not among the 4 star movies listed (which I haven’t seen btw).
I’ve got George Romero’s Land of the Dead on DVD but it’s not one of his best.
Top rated Hopper films I haven’t seen include Red Rock West, The Rivers Edge and Hoosiers.
Apocalypse Now tops the UMR chart, Cool Hand Luke first on the critics chart and Giant is no.1 at the box office. No arguement here.
Good work Bruce. Vote Up!
Hey Steve
1. Thanks for stopping by and commenting on our Hopper page.
2. Since you commented….I have added your Hopper You Tube Video…sorry I did not do that in the first place.
3. Tally count…I have seen 39 of the movies listed here. So I have a nice 15 movie edge on you.
4. I have seen all of your favorites. I would also put Sons of Katie Elder, Speed, Blue Velvet and True Romance on my favorites list.
5. His scene with Christopher Walken is one of my all-time favorite movie scenes.
6. Blue Velvet was after Rating The Movie Stars came out….I imagine it would have earned a 4 star rating.
7. I would recommend Red Rock West….a fun movie….and features a good Cage performance.
Good feedback….thanks for sharing it.
Hi Bruce, I forgot how old ‘The Book’ was, sorry about that. Thanks for the share!
Yep I agree the scene between Walken and Hopper was one of ‘the’ highlights from True Romance.
I’ll keep an eye out for Red Rock West.
Hey Steve “The Book That Slammed Marlon Brando” is now 36 years old. At one point in the book, it is talking about Marsha Mason…it says something like…..”At the time of this writing, Max Dugan Returns is in theaters”. That movie hit theaters in March 25th, 1983. Glad we agree on the Walken/Hopper scene. I love how that scene plays out. At first Hopper is hoping he will survive…and when offered a cigarette he refuses. As the scene plays out, Hopper realizes that he is not going to survive. So he requests the cigarette….and then goes out with a bang. Good stuff.
I concur with a lot of what Mr Brando says in his post to you today. Pappy has a copy of your book and regards it as a “cult” publication like one of those movies such as Mr Ed Wood’s Plan Nine from Outer Space that are so “off-beat” that paradoxically they become cult movies. Last time I saw Pappy’s copy of your book it was sitting on his bookshelf directly alongside one of Mein Kampf.
In your book you refer to the young Hopper screen persona as that of “the beautiful youth” but I told Mr Lancaster “Burt if I’d played Wyatt I’d not have pitied and tried to save that Hopper kid in the movie. The American people who look up to us screen heroes don’t like Momma’s Boys.”
But tell me, Mr Hirschhorn, did that Hopper guy that you so admire over Mr Brando and me [and who appeared with Dino and me in Sons of Katie Elder] never think of “getting a life” or did he exist to simply follow Mr Brando about? – for example in 1957’s The Story of Mankind trying to match the brilliant Napoleon played by Mr Brando in Desiree.
The same year Mr Hopper surfaces again in a voice only role in Mr Brando’s Sayonara and I thought when hearing that voice “The cheek – trying to out-mumble the screen’s greatest ever mumbler!”
It reminded me of stories about Robert Wagner trying to out-underplay Mr Tracy in Broken Lance. No wonder Mr Brando ensured that Mr Hopper’s role was uncredited in Sayonara, and thank goodness YOUR OWN copycat doesn’t credit Hopper with Sayonara in the tables above.
However still not “getting it” Mr Hopper surfaces YET AGAIN years later in a Brando film, Apocalypse Now. No wonder Mr Brando got sick of the guy and had him banished to another set for his scenes.
Mr Brando’s Col Kurtz is supposed to be the one that’s mad in that movie but it seems to me that it was Mr Hopper who was the proof of one well-known definition of madness which is “doing the same failed thing over and over again and expecting a different result!”
Not thinking Joel really admired Dennis Hopper….in Rating The Movie Stars…he rated Hopper pretty low….good perspective from Wayne and Brando. I wonder why they used Hopper’s voice in Sayonara…..was he walking around the set? Certainly he was not well known….that people would even realize it was him. Not like Sir Michael Caine in Dunkirk…lol. Fun comment to read. Thanks for putting this together.
HI BRUCE
Glad you liked the fun parts of my response. Maybe Brando, before he got tired of Dennis, got him the voice role in Sayonara.
An unfortunate Brando trait was to over-react to people he didn’t like or who bothered him. I’ve told you how his repeated public insults to Burt Reynolds [and his girlfriend] finally drove Burt to call at Marlon’s home and challenge him to a fist-fight – an “offer” that ole Godpop found he COULD “refuse”!
The scar of those times stayed with Burt [apparently a nice guy in real-life] all his life and in an interview that I saw shortly before his death he was still talking about Mumbles’ mistreatment of him. Actually I think that when the pair were young they looked a bit alike.
Hey Bob…your contributions are always greatly appreciated. I think you should put together a Marlon Brando collection of stories…..I will be glad to make an UMR page out of it……giving you complete credit. Come on Bob…you can do it. Good stuff.
HI BRUCE Thanks for the appreciation I’ll think about that but I have in fact been feeling guilty about introducing so many Brando stories as it is. However-
1/Steve and you always seem to be giving us new material with which there is a Brando connection. Your current new page on Hopper with his “stalking” of the Great Mumbler and the latter’s intense dislike of Dennis are all examples of what I mean.
2/Whenever Hirsch surfaces again on your site [as again he did in relation to the Hopper page] I can not resist the temptation to use an appropriate Brando reference or story as an attempted fun “put-down” given Joel’s “savage” treatment of Mr Mumbles.
3/When I was growing up a large number of Brando stories surfaced as he got more media hype than probably any celeb(s) other than Elvis, Monroe, The Beatles and The Burtons. Indeed one film critic [was it The Master under an Alias?] wrote “More ABSOLUTE RUBBISH has been written about Marlon Brando than probably any actor that ever lived!”
4/That cycle was continued, reinforced and extended by (a) guys like Nicholson, Hoffman, Dreyfus, Scorsese etc drooling on about Brando’s influence (b) the mega success in later years of Godpop, the controversy and financial success of Last Tango (c) the massive publicity over Marlon’s enormous fees and profits from Superman, Apocalypse Now and The Formula which got Brando into the prestigious Guinness Book of Records.
5/Around 1990 a [yet another!] list of the 10 Greatest Male Movie Stars of all Time was published and its criteria including not just your own “usual suspects” such as box office and acting awards but also magnitude of media coverage [however they measured that] because the authors argued that such a criterion indicated the extent of which a performer’s appeal transcended even his [her in the case of actresses] impact on screen. For the record the Top 5 in rank order [I can’t remember the other 5] were (1) Paul Newman (2) Tom Hanks (3) Jimmy Stewart (4) Ole Mumbles himself (5) Al Leach.
6/I would dearly love to be able to “change the record” and recount more stories than I have been able to of my very top 5 very favourite actors of all time. However Widmark, Stewart and Peck were all such responsible, sane and well-behaved guys that I know little controversial about them.
7/Even if I did have more Morg Freeman stories to tell, Steve won’t let me tell them now that Morg has allegedly blotted his copy book! And whilst it would be great to use a Ladd yarn to score points off The Master, as often as not Ladd articles have an undue preoccupation with his short physical stature as a screen tough guy. Indeed one reviewer after watching Shane wrote “When he dons western gear he is like a small boy’s idea of a cowboy.”
NB: In view of the Ladd put-downs I have always loved exchanges in 1989’s Roadhouse about stature. Swayze’s Dalton has a great reputation all over the place as a “hard as nails” bouncer not to be tangled with and often when people meet him the first time they end up by saying “You know I always thought you’d be bigger,” to which he’d reply “Gee, where have I hear that before?!” Another mean guy disdainfully initially says to him “I hear you had ***** big enough to be hauled away in a truck. You don’t look so tough to me!” to which Dalton replies “Opinions vary!”
Hey Bob….you introduce as many Brando stories as you want. That is why I think we (meaning you write it….I publish it) put it on paper. We now have over 6,000 pages on UMR (counting trailers)….so there is room for one more. Hope your weekend has gone well….then again…I guess in Ireland you are not having a long weekend like us here in the states. Three days of fun in the sun with the family.
“Boy! you’ve got a nerve haven’t you mate?”
When we made Apocalypse Now together I refused to be filmed with Hopper in scenes that we seemed to share on the screen but which were actually shot separately with each of us and later spliced together by Francis. In a subsequent TV interview the little weed Dennis bitched about my treatment of him.
I made a fortune from Apocalypse Now that enabled me to retire from the screen for 9 years, mainly to get away from guys like you, and I read somewhere that that situation bothered you [as if it was any of your business].
Another consolation with Apocalypse Now, apart from the money which I had to threaten to sue Francis to acquire, is that I didn’t appear in it for too long so that the mountebank Hopper wasn’t able to seem to bask too much in my reflected glory in front of audiences.
In that weird book of yours that now reads like memorabilia left over from the Spanish Inquisition you say things like:
“Even in a film like Out of the Blue where Hopper plays a truck driver who molests his own daughter, he manages to make his character sympathetic.”
“Sympathetic” my ***! Some filmgoers have been puzzled about my real-life distain for Hopper, but he like Dean shamelessly mimicked me in the early days so that I was driven to the point where I felt [like Paul Newman in Cool Hand Luke] screaming at Jimmy and Dennis “Stop feeding off me!”
Yet in your book you pan ME! So let me ask you this: How would YOU like it if someone publicly savaged YOU and yet praised your creation and imitator Bruce Cogerson?
Good comment. Hopper talked about Marlon in this clip. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Isk-mJBK1tk It includes their time while making together. Video is not the best quality….but you can here the story.
Sounds like they both had lots to say about each other. Interesting information. Thanks for sharing it.
“Dennis Hopper developed from the beautiful youth who could play the son of Elizabeth Taylor and Rock Hudson in Giant, to the volatile shaggy hippie of Easy Rider. His reputation as a loaner and troublemaker is earned, not affected. Like many of the film industry’s most intense personalities, he now plays the role that is himself”
Dennis Hopper 4 Star Movie Performances found in Rating the Movie Stars Book.
1963’s Night Tide
1971’s The Last Movie
1976’s Tracksr
1977’s The American Friend
1982’s Out of the Blue
Easy Rider is probably Dennis’ “classic” in posterity but I liked him most in 1986’s Best Shot [aka Hoosiers] as the town alcoholic that earned him supporting actor nominations for both the Oscar and Golden Globe. [He was also nominated for a supporting actor Globe the same year for Blue Velvet].
I thought him over-hammy as the villain Deacon in Costner’s financially controversial 1995 Waterworld but liked the early Dennis in 1957’s Gunfight at OK Corral as the young naive Billy Clanton whom Wyatt takes pity on and unsuccessfully tries to coax to surrender instead of being shot down in the famous Gunfight. He was also good as the racist Paris Trout in the 1991 movie of that name.
IMDB credits Dennis with 23 acting awards and 17 nominations overall and he is reported to have had a net worth on his death in 2010 of $40 million – nearly 46 million in today’s dollars. Very-well deserved in my view and this equally merited Cogerson new page is “Voted Up!”
Hey Bob Roy. I know Easy Rider is loved by many people. I however did not enjoy it all. Long boring drug mess. Only Jack shines….and they kill him off pretty quickly. I remember the day the Oscar nominations came out for the 1986 movies. A tv crew was with Dennis Hopper….and the thought was a Blue Velvet nomination was coming….seeing Hopper’s face as he digested that he got a nomination…but that is was for Best Shot/Hoosiers was a memory I still have all these years later.
Paris Trout was a television movie so it did not get in the rankings…but it was a well received tv movie. He had a pretty impressive career in the 1950s….three classics…Rebel Without a Cause, Giant and Gunfight at the OK Corral. I thought he was ok in Waterworld…but his Speed is the movie villain for me. Good stats on his wealth and awards. Good stuff.
HI BRUCE Thanks for the feedback. I agree with you about Easy Rider on the one hand and Dennis’ Speed villain on the other.
I actually saw Paris Trout on video – no DVD’s around at that time, at least not over here!
Dennis got a Primetime Emmy nom as Outstanding Lead Actor for it. Barbara Hershey who plays his wife in it also got a PT Em nom as outstanding lead actress.
You may recall that Babs is one of my fave modern [supporting] actresses who actually made her big screen debut at the age of 20 in my Doris’ awkwardly-named With Six You’ll Get Eggroll way back in 1968, ironically Doris’ final movie Barbara’s 2nd movie was 2nd female lead in Charlie Bill’s 1969 Heaven with a Gun.
Hey Bob….Paris Trout looks interesting….it got a lot of Emmy nominations. One day I will check that one out. One day, you will come to UMR and Barbara Hershey will have a page. I have always liked her as well (see we can agree…..sometimes). I loved her in Unlawful Entry, Stakeout and 12 Monkeys. Ok….I am joking…..but I used to get Barbara Hershey mixed up with Madeleine Stowe. I do love Hershey in Tin Men, Hoosiers and Hannah And Her Sisters. Good stuff.
Happy Thursday Bob…..currently we have 31 Barbara Hershey Movies in our Database. Here they are:

Hey Joel….always good to get another subject from your Rating The Movie Stars completed. We are closing in on almost 75% done. Obviously Dennis Hopper was alive and well, when Joel wrote his book in 1983.
Dennis is not in Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D, he’s in Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2. The late Mr. Hopper (wow 9 years already) is #19 on the December 15, 2018 Oracle of Bacon Top 1000 Center of the Hollywood Universe list. In fact he was # 1 once. These are the actors on this list he has appeared with.

Hey Dan
1. Thanks for posting this information on Mr. Dennis Hopper.
2. Yep….he has been gone almost 10 years….yet he still managed to have not one but two movies debut in the last 3 years.
3. The Last Film Festival and The Other Side of the Wind both came out years after they were finished….I have not seen either of the movies….but I would like to see both of them.
4. Hopper is still 18th? That is pretty impressive.
5. I guess all of those direct to home entertainment movies helped his cause.
6. I liked Hopper….but I had no idea he was making so many movies in the early 2000s…..heck I am only aware of a few of those movies.
7. Not sure how Texas Chainsaw 3D made his list….it will be gone on the next website update…thanks for the headsup.
8. No Michael Caine on the first list…so sad. Madsen and Stockwell tied with 7 movies each with Hopper.
9. Only 36 Oscar winning co-stars? That seems a little on the low side. I guess Oscar winners stay away from the low budget movies he was making.
Great information on Dennis Hopper.
