1986... The year of Dennis Hopper


I watched this movie last night after many years since the last vieweding, and once again, marveled at the performance of Dennis Hopper. It then dawned on me that 1986 was the same year that he had great roles in two other movies; Blue Velvet and River's Edge. Three of his best roles in one year. The last time I remember that happening was with Sidney Poitier in 1967.

Dennis Hopper was so good in this timroth.

I don't think Hopper ever had another role as strong as the three you mention. He was relegated to playing the same villain over and over again until the end of his life.
