GOSSIP:


[From LasVegasWeekly.com, June 2004] 
"The gang arrives and Billy Joe kicks into action. Robert Duvall is at the hors d'oeuvres table. Dean Stockwell is on the couch with Bruce Conner and Dennis Hopper. They give off the same vibe as the cool kids did in high school--except I'm not worried about any of them starting a fight with me."

[From "Digital Media Online," 2004] 
One of the highlights of the [CineVegas]  festival was the closing night gala at Skin Pool Lounge in the Palms Casino Resort hosted by Movieline's Hollywood Life. 
Celebrities who attended included Dennis Hopper, Dean Stockwell, Bruce Conner, Julian Schnabel, Holly Hunter, Val Kilmer, Taye Diggs, John Leguizamo, Michael Rosenbaum, Robert Duvall, Juliette Lewis and more.
 
[From TV Guide, January 24-30, 2004]
Amber Tamblyn knows weird. As the daughter of "West Side Story" singing-dancing star Russ Tamblyn, the 20-year-old was raised in Topanga Canyon, California, by her father and her mother, singer-teacher Bonnie - and by an extended, '60s-style clan made up of arty iconoclasts and close family friends, including actors Dennis Hopper and Dean Stockwell, rocker Neil Young and Beat poet Michael McClure. "I have, like 34 mothers and 57 dads," she says.

ESCAPE ARTISTS CONVENE AT VENICE BIENNALE
June 28-July 5, 1999

Already known for her smoky voice and steamy entrances, Lauren Bacall recently made a fiery exit from the villa she was staying in during the Venice Biennale. Bacall, Dennis and Victoria Hopper, and Dean Stockwell were sleeping at the home of Count Giovanni Volpi -- where the actors are shooting Oscar-nominated director Robert Dornhelm's film The Venice Project -- when an electrical fire broke out in the library. Stockwell's been credited with discovering the blaze and waking his fellow guests, sending Bacall dashing through the halls in her nightgown. The film's publicist says that everyone headed immediately to the garden except for Victoria Hopper and co-producer Kara Meyers, who lingered to toss pots of water on the flames, in vain. But a source says that some of the VIPs experienced a truly anxious moment as they waited for someone to find the keys to the villa doors, which were locked from the inside. A Venetian fire brigade finally arrived -- by boat -- and extinguished the flames. No one was injured in the fire, but the source says that production on the film was put on hold for a day because some key players were affected by the smoke: "Everybody still has a sore throat," says the source. The Venice Project also stars Frederique van der Wal as a depressed starlet and features Steve Martin, Stockard Channing, Parker Posey, and model Zofia.
