A Bo Hopkins Collection of Scripts and Materials from Hillbilly Elegy
Netflix, 2020. Collection of 7 pieces including a preproduction 125 pp script with working title "Ivan," dated 6/11/19 and written by Vanessa Taylor, based on the novel by J. D. Vance, with highlights, underlines, and other annotations; a white Shooting Draft, 128 pp Shooting Script; a Clapperboard with white board face printed with "Hillbilly Elegy" and working clap sticks signed by director Ron Howard; a crew gift ball cap; 3 color photos from production including Hopkins with Glenn Close, Amy Adams, and director Ron Howard; and a call sheet from time of production. Exhibiting production use, age, dog eared pages from production, and handling.
If you grew up in the 1970s, Bo Hopkins' face was as recognizable as Farrah Fawcett's. A prolific actor who played a myriad of roles on episodic television, Hopkins was usually a villain, but his boyish smirk defied you to hate him. His first TV role was on The Phyllis Diller Show in 1966, and from there, he appeared on virtually every hit show of each decade. From Gunsmoke to The Andy Griffith Show to Charlies Angels to Dynasty, Hopkins was on hand to raise a ruckus with a twinkle in his eye. Hopkins must have had every Hollywood casting director in the palm of his charming hand, because it's difficult to find a major hit television show in which he didn't appear! A notable film role for Hopkins was the critically acclaimed Sam Peckinpah Western, The Wild Bunch (1969), where he played the unforgettable character of Crazy Lee. His other notable film credits include American Graffiti (1973), Midnight Express (1978), and many others. Hopkins' death in 2022 is a great loss to the entertainment industry; he was a character actor who, without even trying, could entice the audience away from the star with his natural ability and charisma. Mr. Hopkins' family is proud to share his legacy with his fans and hopes you will treasure and enjoy these landmarks in the career of Bo Hopkins.
Provenance: The family of Bo Hopkins.
