Gonzo

Gonzo: the life and work of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson (2008) - film.

This movie was terrific and an incredible history lesson in politics, violence and drugs from the '60s to the '90s...
We saw it last night at the Angelika theatre (only location it is playing at in Manhattan)
ps.. susan sarandon and tim robbins also enjoyed the film.

pps. other books and films by/involving hunter thompson are referenced in the "suggested works" chapter of "how to have fun and not die."
