Tonight’s CRASH hits close to home for Dennis Hopper

If you haven’t been checking out the STARZ drama Crash then tonight is a good night to jump in.  While all the episodes are dramatic and intense, tonight’s episode is a winner and hits a little too close to home.  In the episode, Ben (played by Dennis Hopper) is asked by a cancer-stricken friend (Keith Carradine) to help him end his life.  The ‘friend’ also happens to be the husband of Ben’s ex-wife (Peggy Lipton of The Mod Squad and Twin Peaks fame).  As if things weren’t a little too real with the raw emotions in the episode, it was recently revealed that Hopper has prostate cancer in real life.

Here’s a clip with the three actors.   CRASH clip w/Hopper, Carradine and Lipton
