[QUOTE="HFS, post: 3788083, member: 8862"] I didn't realize he was in so many films and over time he went from playing bad guys to good guys. Bo Hopkins, the wily actor with the wild-eyed gaze who came to fame portraying thieves and scoundrels in such films as The Wild Bunch, American Graffiti, Midnight Express and White Lightning, died Saturday. He was 84... ...In [U]The Wild Bunch[/U], Hopkins’ character, a volatile young member of the gang, terrorizes a group of hostages inside a bank before meeting a horrible end in a hail of bullets. Just before his demise, he utters one of the film’s most quotable lines — “Well, how’d you like to kiss my sister’s black cat’s a--?” “They took me to special effects and had wires runnin’ up my a--, up my legs. I was squibbed up 26 times,” he recalled of his first big movie role. “I (blankin') thought I was gonna go to the moon if them things ever went off. I’d never worked with squibs. Sam asked me if I wanted a T-shirt. ‘No, sir,’ I said. ‘I want to feel it.’ … Well, see, I didn’t know. I wanted to feel it, experience it, just like we talked about at the Actors Studio. And like a damn fool, I didn’t wear a T-shirt.” [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/bo-hopkins-dead-wild-bunch-american-graffiti-1235155857/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
