THE RUM DIARY With Johnny Depp, Giovanni Ribisi, Aaron Eckhart, Amber Heard, Richard Jenkins Written by Bruce Robinson (based on the novel by Hunter S. Thompson) Directed by Bruce Robinson Across almost 30 years, Robinson only made around 4 movies, his most accomplished work being his cult classic debut Withnail & I. Here he returns with his take on the Hunter S. Thompson book about Paul Kemp, a washed-up heavy drinking journalist who decides to apply for a writing job at a struggling newspaper on the island of Puerto Rico. It is the 1960s, and the island is a holiday and retirement destination for many Americans who are not interested in rotten corruption beneath the surface. 4 / C |
