whats that movie?

READ THE BOOK!

It's based on the guys real experiences.
Unfortunately the main character Hunter S Thompson has left us for the great drug den in the sky.

The main guy in the film is played by Johnny Depp
Raoul Duke I think his name is...

And i believe it was made in the late 90's
(the film not the book)

Raoul Duke is Hunter S. Thompson, it was just a pseudonym he used all the time. Thats why when the hotel clerk tries to give Depp's character the telegram, it is addressed to "A Mr. Thompson."

Read Thompson's other works as well guys, they're brilliant, and you'll most definitely find yourself agreeing with what he has to say.

Really!
I didn't know that he used the name Raoul!!
And I hadn't noticed the letter at reception...will keep an eye out for it next time

I just meant the Charecter that Johnny Depp plays is know as Raoul Duke in the film
But guess it all kinda makes sense really...

Thanks for the info

i love this movie..i have it and watched it a bunch of times. i still get confused throughout most of it. how its all about them going to find the american dream and all that kinda stuff. can someone explain this deeper meaning of the plot. i bet if i read the book it'd maybe be a little clearer. i just think its sooo funny and a great movie, but i don't completely understand it yet? i think i have to watched it when im really stoned.
can anyone explain this to me? thanks
