rksl-rock 1301 Posted May 30, 2010 RIP :( , it was very good actor - i liked him in speed or in waterworld Its funny people remember him for movies that the critics hated and miss all the great films he did: Rebel Without a Cause Cool Hand Luke Apocalypse Now ...and so many more. He made some stinkers too but I always watched them just for him. He was a real character. Sad day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daddl 10 Posted May 31, 2010 After watching 'Heart of darkness, a filmmakers apocalypse" that film become even better. Its a documentary done by mrs Coppola. Recommended.http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0102015/ The novel that the basic narrative and the Kurtz character are drawn from - 'Heart of Darkness' by Joseph Conrad - is also very good. And no, it's not a book about Vietnam - not even about war. But I think the book title describes the movie perfectly fine (and - as it seems - it's creation, too). Apocalypse Now is not an action movie, despite the famous helicopter scene.But back on topic: RIP Dennis Hopper - Easy Rider and fricking cool bad guy! You'll be missed!
