I mean, each man - because of their technology, they are able to feed, clothe, house, and transport themselves equally and with no effort. I mean, they don't have no wars, they got no monetary system, they don't have any leaders because, I mean, each man is a leader. Except that their society is more highly evolved. Hey, man, I saw somethin', man but, I didn't see 'em workin' here.

Well, you just seen one of 'em, didn't ye? And they have been livin' and workin' among us, in vast quantities, ever since. They've been comin' here ever since 1946, when the scientists first started bouncin' radar beams off of the moon. They - they -they've got bases all over the world now, you know. Me and Eric Heisman was down in Mexico two weeks ago, we seen 40 of 'em flyin' in formation. When they couldn’t find it, they ended up snorting the ashes of the executive’s dead wife.That was a - UFO beamin' back at ya. In the quest for the ultimate high, they reportedly wandered into the office of an executive at the production company to look for cocaine. The trio of Fonda, Nicholson and Hopper did not just restrict themselves to ingesting copious amounts of drugs during the production. Instead of being straight and having to act stoned at the end, I was now stoned at the beginning and having to act straight.” After the first take or two, the acting job became reversed. But each time I did a take or an angle, it involved smoking almost an entire joint. While reflecting on the making of Easy Rider, Jack Nicholson said: “We were all stoned the night we shot the campfire scene… The story about me smoking 155 joints – that’s a little exaggerated. had his drink, smoked joints, and the crew dabbled with acid and dope.” Since it was a Dennis Hopper project, this should come as no surprise as the man has done far more intense things like searching for death in a Mexican jungle and shooting up a tree while high on LSD. Fonda recalled: “Everyone had their of choice on Easy Rider. It was later confirmed by the stars of the film, like Peter Fonda and Jack Nicholson, that the entire crew was using something or the order. But I don’t sleep with cameras, so this film is not the real Dennis Hopper.” I wanted to be vulnerable because I thought it would be something different. I’m really tired of Hollywood images - the big virile star who’s really a homosexual, the goody-two-shoes who fucks everybody in dark bedrooms at parties.

In an interview with Rolling Stone, Hopper denounced that very image: “The new generation doesn’t know anything about me except for what they saw in Easy Rider. Society loves to put bubbles up there and pop them, and I resent it. The film perfectly captured the social landscape of America at the time by contextualising the abstractions of the hippie movement and presenting poignant metaphors which remain unforgettable. Hopper’s 1969 magnum opus Easy Rider crystallised his image in the public consciousness as the rebellious artist who had no patience for society’s restrictive norms and obsolete guidelines for morality. American actor and filmmaker Dennis Hopper is often remembered as ‘Hollywood’s Original Hell-Raiser’, a countercultural symbol of the 1960s and the ’70s.
