OjaiDocs '08 presents 'The Life and Work of Dr. Hunter S Thompson, Gonzo'
Event Type:  Screening
08/30/2008 @ 4:30 pm to 6:30 pm
Ojai, CA, USA
From Oscar-winning director Alex Gibney comes a probing look into the uncanny life of national treasure and gonzo journalism inventor Dr. Hunter S. Thompson. Fueled by a raging libido, Wild Turkey, and superhuman doses of drugs, Thompson was a true "free lance,” goring sacred cows with impunity, hilarity, and a steel-eyed conviction for writing wrongs. Focusing on the good doctor's heyday, 1965 to 1975, the film includes clips of never-before-seen (nor heard) home movies, audiotapes, and passages from unpublished manuscripts. Narrated by Johnny Depp.
Address: 145 East Ojai Ave., Ojai, CA
