Review: Dennis Hopper: The Wild Ride of a Hollywood Rebel


Dennis Hopper: The Wild Ride of a Hollywood Rebel
Dennis Hopper: The Wild Ride of a Hollywood Rebel by Peter L. Winkler

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



A great wild and revealing portrait of (self-)tortured actor, frustrated director, successful art collector and self-important renegade Dennis Hopper. The tangled tales of who write the script to Easy Rider, why Hopper did so many crappy movies, and just what led to the notoriety-through-obscurity of "The Last Movie" make this a cineophile's goldmine.
