{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}<a href="http://entertainment.blogs.foxnews.com/2009/09/30/report-oscar-nominated-actor-dennis-hopper-rushed-to-hospital/" target="_blank">Dennis Hopper was taken to the hospital</a> on September 30, 2009 with "flu-like symptoms," and is now reportedly doing okay. When the news hit, people were shocked, because the one-time craziest guy in Hollywood still looked so fit and remarkably well put together, given his former drug and alcohol-abusing lifestyle. Here's a look at Dennis now and back in the day, plus a look back at all of his 1960s leading men compatriots who are still with us today. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ <b>Dennis Hopper in "Giant"</b> (1956). Dennis pre-dated all of his 1960s leading men, cutting his teeth in a handful of 1950s classics, including "Giant" and "Rebel Without a Cause," both starring the late James Dean.
After years of substance abuse, the now clean-and-sober Hopper looks better than ever at age 73.

A year away from 80 years old, Sean Connery looks just as good, or even better, than Harrison Ford, his "Indy" co-star almost two decades his junior. (AP)
Jon Voight in "Midnight Cowboy" (1970).
Now 70, Jon Voight is still in 3-4 movies a year, and has become known for his conservative political views. Oh yeah, and for being Angelina Jolie's dad. (AP)
