Big, Big Fun... if you really love Hunter

The documentary is a thinly veiled attempt to "break into" the life of the famed Gonzo fiend and shed light on his inner madness. Many funny scenes throughout the film, especially when Hunter is berating glib English director Alex Cox. The film itself comes across slightly amateur-esque in its editing and presentation, but is certainly a must-see for Hunter fans.

Quotes
[Hunter tries to do his trick of tossing a whiskey bottle in the air and catching it neatly in his hand, but he fails to catch it and has also left the top off, spilling whiskey everywhere, including on Johnny Depp]
Hunter S. Thompson: I was hoping it would come around faster, y'know.
