Yup, Benicio Del Toro was great too. It's too bad that just bc the movie involved drugs, Hollywood refused to acknowledge the movie. It got bad reviews and everything.Quote:

yeah i read the book 3 or 4 times before the movie was finally made. funny how you show yourself the visuals or u see it as you read. bit like lord of the rings too.
good jobs in both cases though.
bat country...slay me.
Ya really ought to read the book, though. Especially the part where the attorney is doing the technicolor yawn down the side of the big white caddy -- the great white shark, as HST calls it -- while Raoul Duke blithely keeps some visitors to the national anti-drug convention from getting into the turn-around lane to go to their casino. Heh.Quote:

"I dunno," he replied. "Come up here and smoke, f'cripesakes!". So she walked up on stage, found a chair, sat down at the table, and just smoked through the whole show.
He offered her some WT, but she declined. "Awright, suit yerself," he slurred.
shit,
that movie was funny at the begining but then it freaked the livin shit out of me
like when he was stoned on that crazy adrenaline, and tehn with the lizrds, fkn funny tho, how he spoke with the cig all day in the mouth
as ur attorney i recomend u get a very fast car, with no roof top, and u'll need the coke
Hunter S. Thompson is fucking great, anyone who likes F&L should read "Hunter:The Strange and Savage Life of Hunter S. Thompson" by E. Jean Carroll. It offers a lot of insight on HST and has a bunch of great stories, and I have a sneaking suspicion it was written by HST himself under a pseudonym, the writing style is very similar.
I just smoked some Thunderfuck and feel like sharing, sorry about the long post in advance
Ch.1, pg 1
I have heard the biographers of Harry S. Truman, Catherine the Great, etc., etc., say that they would give anything if their subjects were alive so they could ask them some questions. I, on the other hand, would give anything if my subject were dead.
