“John Houston (sic) and I were doing an ad for whisky with Victor Strebneski. I asked Huston when was the last time he had seen John Ford. “I haven’t seen him in 20 years” e responded. So we decided to visit Mr. Ford in Palm Springs and take Victor with us. After talking for a while, I told Mr. Ford that I had gotten permission from his wife to get him into his wheelchair so we could take a photograph together. Mr. Ford replied, “Kid, you know what your problem is? You’ve got no sense of drama — because if you had a sense of drama you’d get in bed with me.” ” - Dennis Hopper
