1986 was just a good year for Hopper in general. He did Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2, Hoosiers, which got him an Academy Award nomination and Blue Velvet, which really helped cement he was back. In retrospect, his Academy Award nomination should have been for Blue Velvet and he should have won the Oscar, though that performance was pretty dark to be nominated that time as the films acknowledged in the 80s for film awards were more light hearted compared to the 70s.

Brando's penchant for speaking his mind, unwillingness to compromise and please may cause him troubles because he could easily make enemies. Brando was the victim of his own fame, which has attracted unethical writers writing his biographies, filled with inaccuracies, speculations and lies. He really doesn't deserves these.

Thanks. One thing the haters can't deny - he actually went way out of his way to help someone other than himself: Native Americans. He had no dog in that fight, but he tried to help them in his own, grandiose way. How many people have the courage to do that? And how rare is that? He tried to be a good man, at least once in his life, and that's more than most people. Compare that to just about any other major Hollywood star - they just take the money and run.

Wow, in retrospect these Bob Costas shows were such treasures. No late night shows except Tavis Smiley have adult, in-depth discussions with their guests the way Costas does, and Tavis isn't as good at it.

That's a great moment at the very end when Coppola's trying to explain to Dennis what the scene's about and he keeps interrupting him. Coppola gets so frustrated - "We'll I'd tell you but you don't let me talk for more than a fucking second!" Classic manic Hopper.

The scene in Apocalypse Now where Marlon is reading the 'Hollow Man' and Dennis goes off on a tangent about 'no maybes, no supposes' etc etc is amazing, it turns out that it was real and unscripted and when Marlon throws the bananas at Dennis and calls him a mutt it is real. I think Dennis was so spaced out at that point in his life he was unable to relate to in anyway and Marlon just couldnt take it bieng in his presence. Francis casting Dennis in that role however was perfect for the film...

Brando was an acting genuis. Elia Kazan, the oscar winning director, claimed in his lifetime the only acting genuis he had ever encountered was Brando. Kazan himself was a good actor. People who criticize his private life don't even know him. I have never believed that he didn't treat his daughter well or any of maliceous speculations. I always believe Brando was a nice person based on his support of powerless peoples. Brando's sensitivity certainly reflected his soul.

A few years back I actually chartered a boat in Laos and cruised up the Mekong to near the Chinese border and wound up in the actual village that the guy they based Colonel Kurtz and his Hmong army on was based out of. Other than the fact that I never got speared or took acid during a battle at night or bumped into some playboy bunnies it was astonishingly nothing like the movie at all lol. Didn’t stop me from repeatedly playing “The End” by the Doors on my Bluetooth speaker though….
