Terry Gilliam
An oddball journalist and his psychopathic lawyer travel to Las Vegas for a series of psychedelic escapades.
The big-screen version of Hunter S. Thompson's seminal psychedelic classic about his road trip across Western America as he and his large Samoan lawyer searched desperately for the "American dream"... they were helped in large part by the huge amount of drugs and alcohol kept in their convertible, The Red Shark.
