“I remember a million years ago I had a big party when I had an apartment in [downtown L.A.] and Owen was there,” Cage recalled. “I was standing across the room with Jack Nicholson and we were both observing Owen and I asked Jack, ‘Don’t you think he resembles Dennis Hopper both physically and energetically?’ Jack said, ‘Him?’ I said, ‘Yeah.’ And we both watched Owen a bit longer and then had some lemon tart.
