Gonzo: The Life and Work of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson
IN THEATERS JULY 4, 2008
From Oscar-winning director Alex Gibney comes GONZO: THE LIFE AND WORK OF DR. HUNTER S. THOMPSON, the definitive biography of the man who Tom Wolfe called "the century's greatest comic writer." Fueled by a raging libido, Wild Turkey and superhuman doses of drugs, Thompson was a true "free lance": goring sacred cows with impunity, hilarity and a steel-eyed conviction for writing wrongs. Focusing on the good doctor's heyday – from 1965 to 1975 – the film is entirely narrated by the words of Thompson himself – from his letters, articles, and books and is read – on camera and off – by Johnny Depp. A Jigsaw Production.
