He attended the Actors Studio, making his first television appearance in 1954, and soon after appeared in two films with James Dean. In the next ten years he made a name in television, and by the end of the 1960s had appeared in several films. Hopper also began a prolific and acclaimed photography career in the 1960s. In 1969 Hopper directed and starred in ''Easy Rider'', winning an award at the Cannes Film Festival, and was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay as co-writer. Journalist Ann Hornaday wrote: "With its portrait of counterculture heroes raising their middle fingers to the uptight middle-class hypocrisies, Easy Rider became the cinematic symbol of the 1960s, a celluloid anthem to freedom, macho bravado and anti-establishment rebellion."〔Hornaday, Ann (May 29, 2010). (Dennis Hopper's influential career came full-circle ). ''washingtonpost.com''; The Washington Post. Retrieved 2010-05-30.〕 Film critic Matthew Hays notes that, "no other persona better signifies the lost idealism of the 1960s than that of Dennis Hopper."〔Unterburger, Amy L. (editor) ''International Dictionary of Films and Filmmakers – vol 3 Actors and Actresses'', St. James Press (1997) p. 564〕 Hopper was unable to build on his success for several years, until the fame brought by his role as the American Photojournalist in ''Apocalypse Now'' (1979). He then appeared in ''Rumble Fish'' (1983) and ''The Osterman Weekend'' (1983), and received critical recognition for his acting in ''Blue Velvet'' and ''Hoosiers'', with the latter film garnering him an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor. In 1988 he directed ''Colors'', and in the following years played the eponymous lead character in ''Paris Trout''. He played numerous villains including: ''Speed'' (1994), King Koopa in ''Super Mario Bros.'' (1993) and in ''Waterworld'' (1995). Hopper also played heroes, such as John Canyon in ''Space Truckers''. Hopper's later work included a leading role in the television series ''Crash''. His last performance was filmed just before his death: ''The Last Film Festival'', originally slated for a 2011 release.〔 == Early life == Hopper was born Dennis Lee Hopper on May 17, 1936, in Dodge City, Kansas, the son of Marjorie Mae (née Davis; July 12, 1917 – January 12, 2007)〔〔Staff (March 11, 2008). (Dennis Hopper – Republican Hopper considers a vote for Obama ). ContactMusic.com. Retrieved 2010-05-29.〕 and James Millard Hopper (June 23, 1916 – August 7, 1982). He had Scottish ancestors. Hopper had two brothers, Marvin and David. After World War II, the family moved to Kansas City, Missouri, where the young Hopper attended Saturday art classes at the Kansas City Art Institute. At the age of 13, Hopper and his family moved to San Diego, where his mother worked as a lifeguard instructor and his father was a post office manager (Hopper has acknowledged, though, that his father was in the Office of Strategic Services, the precursor to the Central Intelligence Agency, in China with Mao Zedong). Hopper was voted most likely to succeed at Helix High School, where he was active in the drama club, speech and choir. It was there that he developed an interest in acting, studying at the Old Globe Theatre in San Diego, and the Actors Studio in New York City (he studied with Lee Strasberg for five years). Hopper struck up a friendship with actor Vincent Price, whose passion for art influenced Hopper's interest in art. He was especially fond of the plays of William Shakespeare. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dennis Hopper」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
