Okay. Since nobody else bit on this, I'll stick my nose in.
James Woods
other appearance was none other than Lloyd Hopkins himself in
the film,
COP. Unfortunately, I can't remember which book was adapted.
Do remember
that it was a decent "little" picture, though purists may
quibble about
his portrayal of Hopkins. As I recall, Hopkins wasn't a very
nice guy,
and neither is Woods in this picture.
