Hunter S. Thompson Books

I have been otherwise detained for the last couple of weeks. I’m working on a interesting project, something totally different to what I’m used to. More of which I’ll go into at a later stage. Anyway on checking my site emails I see that I am getting a lot of requests to re-post this… Johnny Depp reading the letters / faxes he and Hunter exchanged during the build up to the filming of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. They are great clips and give a good, all be it small insight into their relationship. Even though Depp was a huge fan of Thompson’s long before they met, he didn’t take any guff when Hunter tried some of his bullying tactics.

Also I’m beginning work on a Rum Diary time line article, to (if we can get the timing right) coinside with the release of The Rum Diary Movie; which will be published in Beat Scene Magazine. meanwhile enjoy the videos…
