Dennis Hopper: Farewell to an Icon

One of my favorite memories is being snuck into a late night showing of Easy Rider.

They're spreading blankets on the beach



Yours is the first face that I saw

I think I was blind before I met you

Now I don’t know where I am

I don’t know where I’ve… Continue
