    Sloppy reporting by Finch: HST was not a member of the Hells Angels, just rode with them. If you already knew, now you don't have to comment. ;)
    music at 18:25 - "Spem In Alium" by Thomas Tallys (unknown recording - ask the BBC)

      @@landwirtschaft2116 Taverner doesn't seem to have any published recordings of Spem before 1978, when the documentary was produced. Also, this particular piece requires an unusual choral setup (40 voices!) & I found most performances sound very similar outside of room acoustics, mic quality etc. Of course, who knows what BBC has hiding in its vaults, so I give you a distinct "MAYBE". :)

      Mainstream media find so many ways to dismiss dissenting voices, he swears, he takes illegal substances, he twitches, he looks strange and many people let them take this judgmental stance on their behalf when in actuality if they saw the real personality of many politicians Hunter would be looking pretty good at that point, he knew this too but they knew he was easily dismissed or he would have been shut up a long time ago.

      Infinite Paths
      It was actually written only the day after the attacks on the 12th. It's an amazing piece.
      "The towers are gone now, reduced to bloody rubble, along with all hopes for Peace in Our Time, in the United States or any other country. Make no mistake about it: We are At War now - with somebody - and we will stay At War with that mysterious Enemy for the rest of our lives.
      It will be a Religious War, a sort of Christian Jihad, fueled by religious hatred and led by merciless fanatics on both sides. It will be guerilla warfare on a global scale, with no front lines and no identifiable enemy.

      We are going to punish somebody for this attack, but just who or what will be blown to smithereens for it is hard to say. Maybe Afghanistan, maybe Pakistan or Iraq, or possibly all three at once. Who knows? Not even the Generals in what remains of the Pentagon or the New York papers calling for WAR seem to know who did it or where to look for them.
      This is going to be a very expensive war, and Victory is not guaranteed - for anyone, and certainly not for anyone as baffled as George W. Bush. All he knows is that his father started the war a long time ago, and that he, the goofy child-President, has been chosen by Fate and the global Oil industry to finish it Now. He will declare a National Security Emergency and clamp down Hard on Everybody, no matter where they live or why. If the guilty won’t hold up their hands and confess, he and the Generals will ferret them out by force."

    "Always the crazy ones were discussed with hidden interest. Some were mocked outright, and others were affectionately referred to with lines like “she’s a bit different” or “he’s a bit out there”. Whatever the case, it seemed most people had a subconscious fascination for the alternative mind. People would stand back and observe them as if they were a rare species - some kind of exotic bird with pink feathers. Mostly they fascinated me because they were the creatures who had jumped the fences of normality; they were the ones who hadn't subscribed to the current version of sanity which helped us all enjoy small-talk down the pub. To me that was a liberating quality I couldn’t help but envy. Without being shepherded on the farm of conventional thought, you were free to invent yourself and be whatever you wanted to be. And what was more desirable than that? In a world that said the winners were the rich people, or the famous people, or the good-looking people, to me it was the crazy ones - the people living life on their own terms - who were life’s greatest success stories"

Thompson is the greatest genuis of all time but at the same time he is a stupid dumbass loser. And that's why he couldn't find love. because he didn't love himself in his physical body enough for that light inside to keep living. he lived for self destruction he enjoyed slowly killing himself with drugs. He knew he was doing so and it would lead to his downfall. Why did he not stop, why did he not get help? because he hated everything. he hated simply existing in society, the fact that greed and blood has built all the evil around him. and it slowly drives a pure soul insane until they seek refuge and self destruct their life in drugs/self harm. because you dont wanna be there when the sirens go off. the sirens going off is the end. or are they? the sirens going off when the going gets weird is what makes the weird turn pro. but not everyone can be weird and know it sadly. that's your own journey, but let love be your helping hand in it.
      you have to sacrifice your own consciousness nd separate human physical brain from society. you have to break that wall. i cant explain much more. but he said when the When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro he was not referring to himself, because he died. he didn't turn pro. he turned into darkness. he lost. the end. he fucked his life up. he was so far but so close from the truth. you gotta go to hell and back and then deeper than hell and breathe life back into your own lungs to feel happy forever. and this is when one defeats fear and loathing. because instead of going forward like thomas, they reverse. they stay in fear and loathing population 1 forever until they cant take it anymore. then what is there to kill? that is up for the rest of the weird to find out

He created his own lane all altogether, and though part of what he created consumed him, there is no doubt that the story of literature amd journalism can not be told without dedicating, if not only a chapter, more likely an entire encyclopedia, to Hunter S. Thompson. He had a writing style like no one before him, and though many have tried, like none after.

    I can’t remember the exact video I saw but it was Hunter’s first wife talking about the only two times she saw him cry. Once was about a dog(which goes to show Hunter was a dog weirdo which is awesome) and the second time was when he was describing the police action taken during a civil rights protest he was at. Not only does it say a lot about his true character as a man, but just a lot about how much personal freedom and equal rights meant to him.
    What really saddens me is what he talks about in this documentary, how people just always see him as the drunk drug addict crazy psycho character. In reality he was so much more than that and the more digging you do the more you realize how much of a patriot of freedom this guy really was.
    He described Acosta as that famous quote we all know, one of gods own freaks of however it goes. What’s truly ironic is how much that quote about Acosta might as well be him talking about himself and I don’t think he ever realized it.

    I think storytellers across many mediums can learn from HST in his method of vividly describing his subjective experience and perceptions instead of being weighed down by a detached point of view. "I don't understand film, thats why I want to learn about film. I think the technology is not up to the lever we have to get to portray reality"...So true and ahead of the times in the discussion of 'truth' and documentary film.

Thanks, mutual defense! The doomsday clock is 90 seconds from midnight & we are actively funding 2 wars, while ignoring a(nother) genocide in Africa. Thanks diplomacy! We have seen the largest shift in wealth from the working class, to the rich, in history. The bottom 50% of households now have 2.5% of the nations wealth, while the top 2 INDIVIDUAL American’s have as much money as the bottom 160,000,000. Thanks capitalism! Our discourse has become combative, our faith in institutions eroded & our trust in journalists, doctors, teachers, scientists & politicians at an all-time low. T!

Oh yeah, & we in America are STILL the ONLY 1st world developed nation to deny it’s citizens comprehensive healthcare as a right. Thanks, health insurance industry! Hate to say it, but Hunter wouldn’t have answers. He would likely be disgusted with the current discourse. He would have his positions like everyone else & would provide some amazing snark. He was an amazing writer, but he was a sports writer. I think we woulda lost him to the hills in the 80s tbh. The rise of the Moral Majority, the demise of the middle class, the continued cost of an ineffectual drug war, the popularity of racist ideologies, the self-obsession of a social media & reality tv obsessed population, the demagoguery & dog-whistling.. I think he would of wrote us off like GC did, total loss of faith in humanity, but unlike Carlin, Hunter wouldn’t have hung around to keep reminding us we’re messing up. Acosta was the real revolutionary & would be much more effective in today’s hostile political atmosphere imo..

    I love the bit around 42:40. He's so deep into the self-disgust that he seems genuinely taken aback by being told that he comes off as authentic.

      Literary freaks are fortunate to have this document of peak Hunter when his Gonzo-ism was at critical mass. This interview is of a different tone entirely but a nice companion piece: ua-cam.com/video/ZsRqLcD-1sE/v-deo.html

    Holy Jesus....I have watched this through about 6 times over the past few years. it never bores me. It's inspiring to watch a free man just do what he wants for fun and not give a flying fuck.
    I am currently reading Kingdom of Fear.
    Fantastic read. i highly recommend it.

    Murray played the best Hunter S. Thompson the man, Depp played the best Hunter S Thompson the character.

    Ralph Steadman's art really reminds me of Gerald Scarfe's animations for Pink Floyd's The Wall (rather the other way around). Creepy miniaturized or elongated forms, thin lines high contrast deep colors. Wild animals/characters and super trippy to say the least

    Johnny Depp nailed it when it came to acting like Hunter S Thompson in Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas.
    allot of actors need to do that as well because acting is a skill not everybody has.
    we got to much mediocre actors now a days, most of them play the same character over and over again.
    this just shows how good Johnny Depp is as a actor!
