Dennis Hopper: Hollywoods resident psycho.

Dennis gets better with each performance. He has psycho down to a science. The interesting thing is that he never had to "act" crazy like in Blue Velvet. He acted normal. He had normal conversations with Asia. He never beat or raped her. She was clean, warm, comfortable and well fed. All he wanted was company. The strangeness was simply from the setting. The TV lady who was hot for him acted more "crazy" than Dennis.

Nice dress. It would look great on my floor.

I agree with you. I think this is a movie that has to be watched with a keen sense of humor. I found it fun, thought all the performances were terrific, and right on. In fact, there were some parts I even felt sorry for Krebs. Of course, having written it, I'm a bit prejudice. gerald sanford.

Gerald. What a nice surprise (that is if you're not shi**ing me). Thank you for your reply to my brilliant, incisive post.

Yes, of course, it's Sanford. Who else would want to credit being me if he weren't? The only Mason I know is Paul Mason, however, a nice guy who I've worked for, and with, over the years. The last time, I believe, doing "CHIPS". Do the right thing, and may 'THE KEEPER' be with you.gs

Now I believe you. As a matter of fact, I saw them shooting an episode of "CHIPS" on location in LA years ago when I was delivering phone books.

You have an amazing resume. Many of the shows I grew up on. Thanks for your reply. Say hi to Dennis for me.

dhmason, feeling in a down mood I stopped to read a review of mine for 'THE KEEPER', and who was waiting for me -- dhmason! Well, it's been a long time. I'm still writing, and set to go into production of my new script shortly. No, I can't give you the name of it yet. But will in time. Hope all's well with you, and that your living the life you've always wanted! Keep it up. Enjoy, and live long, gerald sanfofd

Yeah I found this to be one of his better lesser known movies.

[–] Jones70 (6195) 3 years ago

Wish he could've lived 10 more years to keep making movies.

[–] Jones70 (6195) 3 years ago

I would actually watch this movie again.
