Buy the Ticket, Take the Ride

 

USA 2006, 73 minutes
Dir. Tom Thurman
Rating: [M]
Genres: Documentary / Arts & Artists

 

Aroview: Definitive documentary about the life and death of the late, great gonzo himself, Hunter S. Thompson.

Visuals draw heavily on clips, including from pseudo-bios WHERE THE BUFFALO ROAM and FEAR AND LOATHING IN LAS VEGAS, with little utility for fans of the lit, but Thompson's utter idiosyncracy shines through along with some of his penetrating brainpower.

Narrated by Nick Nolte and featuring interviews with the predictable raft of self-styled 'outlaw' celebs living in Thompson's long, dark shadow (Depp, Penn, Busey, etc.)
