19 Dez 2008 Jahr - GUARDIAN REVIEW - Gonzo: The Life and Work of Hunter S Thompson

Beschreibung:

Gonzo is narrated by Johnny Depp, who played Thompson in Terry Gilliam's biopic, and begins with Thompson's long, slow slide into depression before his 2005 death, and his feeling that his best years as a writer were behind him. There's a grim shot of a picture of Ernest Hemingway on what appears to be Thompson's mantelpiece. Like Hemingway, Thompson elected to kill himself at the last. It was one final macho gesture to shore up his self-esteem, though his first wife, Sandy, challenges the sentimental consensus that this restored his "dignity".
