[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]

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.

Making dates, breaking dates
Answering the call of the muse
Winery owner Francis Ford Coppola presided Sunday night
at a 2 1/2-hour community meeting in the cafeteria of
SS Peter and Paul's Church. The meeting was called to
take stock of North Beach Citizens, which helps the homeless
in that community. People who attended were encouraged
to ask questions, make suggestions and voice criticism
or praise for the group.
Meanwhile, the director's son Roman Coppola and his girlfriend
Frankie Rayder, fresh from the Coppola-George Lucas family
vacation expedition -- a trans-Canada ride in a Canadian
Pacific train car used by Winston Churchill -- were at
weekend festivities surrounding Sunday's Concours d'Elegance
car show at Pebble Beach. The guest list included Jay
Leno, Clint Eastwood, Malcolm McDowell, Dennis Hopper,
Dean Stockwell, Diane Ladd, Randy Quaid and Mark Rydell.
The night before Sunday's event, the stars stopped off
at a Carmel Valley Ranch dinner thrown by Cadillac and
GM honchos Bob Lutz and John Devine.

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.
