Johnny Depp in The Rum
Diary: Hunter S. Thompson
'lives' again!
Description:
Over a decade after Terry Gilliam’s Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas tanked at the box office and became the best movie ever to watch in a college dorm, Johnny Depp is returning to the land of Hunter S. Thompson with The Rum Diary. The first photos from the film have just been released, and looking at them feels, to me, like a hallucinogenic dream come true. Johnny Depp’s role in Fear and Loathing is one of the great over-the-top performances. His bizarro-delivery of the gonzo journalist’s dialogue resulted in one of the most quotable movies ever. I used to spend whole hours just quoting Fear and Loathing back and forth with one of my college buddies. This made us super-popular and got us dozens of girls.
