Pete Postlethwaite is perhaps the man with the most angular face shape I've always seen. He was astonishing in "Brassed Off" starring Ewan McGregor, and I read somewhere StevenSpielbergthinks highly of him, dubbing him the most versatile actor around.Brassed Off premierDennis Hopper - at first I was like "Wait - wasn't he in one of the Gorillaz albums?" and so I did a fast look and launch out that not alone was he the guy who did "Fire coming out of the monkey's head" for Gorillaz album Demon Days. He also performed and toured with the ring during the advancement of Demon Days. I think during my days where college work didn't bombard me with deadlines, words and essays, I used to determine the whole Gorillaz concerts online. Here's a peculiarly good performance featuring the one and only Dennis Hopper. He is amazing. Simply amazing how an actor can function with Damon Albarn, the champion of creating music and combining people together, to make such a song. It plays great live too. Dennis Hopper also features on Bananaz, Gorillaz's documentary film. He is hilarious. Damon's hilarious. Jamie's goofy. The clip below shows you the part he's in. I think Damon just wants to use his American accent to demonstrate his gradual shift into the american music scene! Or to advance his album in the US ?
Dennis Hopper with Jamie and Damon at the GrammysHe will be missed. I'm now wondering how Damon took the word of his death. Damon and Dennis seemed pretty close and in good terms, at least on the line side of things. It was a cushion for me to see he died, and entirely in the Oscars did I really see this news. It's sad. Gorillaz lost another collaborator. Any thoughts?

Dennis Hopper is dead? Tribute for Gorillaz
Dennis Hopper is dead? Tribute for Gorillaz
After watching the Oscars this dawn on live TV, and beholding the collage of idle persons in Hollywood, I got to say, I'm surprised. I now recognize that Dennis Hopper and Pete Postlethwaite passed away. That's really something - when did they die? It wasn't like all over the face page of the news, or yet the "entertainment" section.
