Hollywood lost a legend today. Dennis Hopper, 74, has died after a long battle with prostate cancer.Hopper is best known for his roles in "Easy Rider", "Rebel Without A Cause", and "Blue Velvet". While most knew him from these classic movies, he was also known for less rebellious roles in "Hoosiers", "Apocalypse Now", and "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2."
During the course of his career he won two Academy Awards and received a star on the Hollywood walk of fame.
Hopper had been married five times and was currently in a legal battle with his current wife, Victoria, who insisted that Hopper was trying to cut her out of the will and her inheritance. The feud was still in full swing up until his death.
His second marriage, to singer-actress Michelle Phillips of the Mamas and the Papas, lasted only eight days.
