Fair, but there's a better documentary about the man — 1 year ago
Although likeable, this documentary says more about the work and public persona of Hunter S. Thompson rather than the man himself. Filled with people who surrounded him, voice-overed by Johnny Depp, it makes for a suave, exploding and chronological journey through his career, from the times he covered Hell’s Angels, through his interest in politics, his trying to become sheriff in Aspen, all things feared and loathed to his eventual artistic downfall, in the shape where he became a parody of himself, to his suicide. Interesting, artistic, but I prefer “Buy The Ticket, Take The Ride”, another documentary on HST.
