Gonzo: The Life and Work of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson
horizontal line

An in-depth, fascinating, entertaining, and informative Alex Gibney documentary that uses home movies, still photographs, and interviews with Tom Wolfe, Sandi Wright, Patrick Buchanan, Jann Werner, George McGovern, and Jimmy Buffet to detail the infamous life and career of gun-loving, drug-addicted, cynical, brilliant journalist and political reporter Dr. Hunter S. Thompson, who was noted for his acerbic wit and hard-hitting writing, including Hell's Angels and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, living life on the edge, running for sheriff in 1970 in Aspen, ferociously campaigning for Senator George McGovern during his 1972 presidential bid, and eventually committing suicide in 2005.
