(I’m posting this now, hoping that you Gonzo fans will have a chance to see this info before the VP fireworks.)
This is a Public Service Announcement for all of the Hunter S. Thompson geeks out there:
Wilmington’s Theater N is playing the recent documentary: GONZO: The Life and Work of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson this weekend. Showtimes are:
Friday 8/22 at 2 PM
Saturday 8/23 at 5 PM
Sunday 8/24 at 2 PM
This film got lots of great notices and seems to have gotten excellent participation from a wide range of Thompson’s friends and targets. The director, Alex Gibney was also responsible for the great and disturbing documentary Taxi to the Dark Side, as well as Enron: The Smartest Guy in the Room, and was a producer on the incredibly great No End In Sight. I missed this when it was playing at the Ritz back in July and will certainly go see it this weekend.
