The Rum Is Never Gone

        I have been readily waiting for a new Johnny Depp movie to hit the big screen. I mean yeah okay I did see the last Pirate movie, but it wasn't like the first three. Johnny however did an amazing job, and he is still doing an amazing job in his newest movie. This October, Johnny is playing the main role in the movie the Rum Diary.
       The Rum Diary is a movie based off another book. Hunter S. Thompson, a famous Gonzo writer in the 50's 60' and 70's was also the author of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, another movie that Johnny played in. This time Hunter S. Thompson left the drugs behind and strictly stuck to the hard liquor. The Rum Diary is based off a non-fictional account of when Hunter S. Thompson wrote for a run down paper in the Caribbean. The main character, Paul Kemp (played by Johnny) is man who is at a crossroads in his life and the only way he finds any sort of direction is by filling his void with shady characters and plenty of alcohol. I cannot wait to see this movie. It's gonna be freaking awesome.
       Anyways, yeah so this is my very first blog for the semester and I am already having a blast. Where can you seriously go to write about an author famous for his outlandish persona and writing style and also the most amazing actor in the world and still get college credit for it? Here, that is the answer.I cannot wait to continue writing blogs for this class, because I believe I can get more people interested in Hunter S. Thompson's work as well as Johnny Depp's. Have an amazing time reading this, I know I have!!
