Dennis Hopper: Uneasy Rider

Photos by Sasha Rendulic, Patricia Lewandowska, and Bill Turnley

Uneasy Rider goes down the memory lane of legendary actor Dennis Hopper. From his humble beginnings in the dust blown-plains of Kansas to the mind-blowing pains of Apocalypse Now, from the glamor of L.A. to a pissed lifestyle in New Mexico, and from box office zero to art house hero, Hopper’s life was no easy ride.

But a hell of a trip.

Uneasy Rider invites us onto a roller-coaster ride, leading us to discover the true Dennis Hopper.

Vaske assembled a star-studded cast of influential artists, musicians, and filmmakers, documenting their insights and memories of this singular icon.

Featuring: Wim Wenders, Isabel Coixet, Alex Cox, Isabella Rossellini, Diane Kruger, Michael Madsen, Harry Dean Stanton, Julian Schnabel, Ed Ruscha, Anton Corbijn, Frank Gehry, Kris Kristofferson, Jeremy Thomas, and Dave Stuart.

PRAISE

"

A movie full of speed.

"

The locations, the interview partners, landscapes, scenes change - nothing is chronological and yet everything is wonderfully structured in itself, without commentary text.

A great team collaborated and created a movie which would be a great prospect/candidate for ”Grimme-Award”.
