Any time I think of Dennis Hopper (or David Lynch) I can't help but think of "Blue Velvet."

I wish I could remember what that movie was about... nothing, probably.

I can recall the opening scene. It was a shot of super green grass and super blue sky with a super red fire truck slowly driving by. Water sprinkler slow-motion sparying the yard.

Then it gets hazy.

The only other thing I can recall is Dennis Hopper hiding in the closet with a mask huffing nitrous or something. That's it... that's all I can remember about that dopey (?) movie.

Pans down to close-up of grass and earth and ants with amplified sound as they crawl on a human ear that has been separated from its former owner.

Frank Booth (Hopper): What's your name, neighbor?

Jeffery (Kyle McLachlin): Jeffery.

Frank: Jeffery what?

Jeffery: Jeffery Nothing.

Frank: Hey, neighbor, would you like to go for a joy ride?

Jeffery: No.

Frank: No? Wha . . . what does THAT mean?

Jeffrey: I don't want to go.

Frank: Go where?

Jeffrey: For a joy ride.

Frank: A joy ride? That's a great idea! Our neighbor wants to go for a f*ckin joy ride!

LOL Or something like that. Loved the dialogue in that movie, though most of it was unprintable.
