I'm sorry but his picture and this man deserve their own thread
 

Why could not all guys look more like me?

true.

Beach bum

I mean why?

You just know his skin is smoother than a baby's ass.

I dunno from what I can see he seems to have a hairy chest.

why are there people like frank?

All my life i haven't met anyone who looks like me
and i have started wondering.You tell me.....why?

anyone doesn't have a damn clue about it?! really? i'm amazed...





why?!...........why?!...........why?!...........

It sort of looks like a young Dennis Hopper.

Yep!

Yeah, I thought that too.

Fucking A! I was right!?

I am Dennis Hopper.Would you like to look more
like me?Would you like to be as hot as me?

...blllluuuee veeelllveettt...

It's daddy you shithead! Where's my bourbon?!

Innnnnnnn drrrrrreeeamms

I really fancy that scene and that song.

ah Blue Velvet, my favorite flick.
johnnywinternoshow* beat me to that.

During Ben's (Dean Stockwell's) serenade to Frank (Hopper) the idea of using a work light as a microphone was an improvisational move by Dean who is an old friend of Dennis.

Lynch uses the music again in the scene on the side of the road with Jeffrey (MacLachlan) & Frank.

a very good Blue Velvet review from Slant Magazine, 2002:

(it's "woos" not "woes" though...probably a typo)

a less flattering pic:








http://www.pimpadelicwonderland.com/hopper.html relates some of his wild side.

I was looking online for some of the tales about his times out at his previously-owned-by-D.H. Lawrence Taos, NM ranch he bought & his ranch in Mexico from the shooting of his The Last Movie, during the editing of which, he self-admittedly lost his mind & went insane. There's some colorful accounts to these tales in Peter Biskind's Easy Riders, Raging Bulls: How the Sex-Drugs-and-Rock 'N' Roll Generation Saved Hollywood book which was made into a documentary in 2003.

bbc article http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcfour/documen...y-riders.shtml
He spent some time in psychiatric wards & rehab hospitals after his breakdown & returned to Hollywood with the one-two punch of Blue Velvet & Hoosiers in 1986. He was nominated for a Best Supporting Actor Oscar for his role as Shooter.

he was also in texas chainsaw massacre 2 in 1986. less said about that the better.

Wish I could remember him as king koopa in mario brothers, i remember nothing about that film apart from the big metal boots they wore

a busy man in '86..thanks.

I really think that "Why are there people like Frank?" should have made it on the AFI top 100 quotes list.

I would have picked "Daddy wants to fuck."

I thought it was "Baby wants to fuck." oh well.

Hey guys!What can i say?Thanks for
the nice words.It's nice to have met someone
who appreciates you and your work.Gotta go now!Bye

You know, wonderful as this picture is, I'm not entirely convinced by his grip on the fag.



A picture-based lesson in how to look THE SHIT when smoking.

Eheheh!Look at me pal!This is the way you do it!eheheh!

Well ain't that somethin'...

Want one son?

You amuse me. You may live. For now.

Touché!

Hehehehehehehehehe.


Peter Lorre creeps the hell out of me.

Dreadfully sorry old chap, I'm strictly a shag smoker you know.

Shit. My career is over.

...UNCONVINCING.

I fucking love peter lorre! i always loved those cartoons that used imitations of his voice before i knew who he was, then i saw casablance and was amazed there was actually a person who talked like that

Haha the Brave Little Toaster...

Yeah, might go down the local for a couple a bit later. What you up to Dave?

He's not even smoking. Why must the gimp always make an appearance? Always.

What honey?What's that?Hahahahahahahahahaha!
