      Crazy Vegas in 2021

      This is an article written by me at four o'clock in the morning in Canada in July 2021. I was on a road trip from Toronto to Calgary. I smoked a lot of Weed and drank a few cans of beer. At this moment, there is no human land in Saskatchewan province, which is hundreds of miles away, and I am here, and the car is on the highway. Stopped by the highway, Belmont cigarette dangling from his...

      Stand in heaven and see hell, or stand in hell and see heaven?

      Drugs, loss, despair, and loneliness are always themes that you will never tire of, and such themes are always more exciting than ever. The stories of Fafu lawyers and gangster reporters in Las Vegas, accompanied by a little bit of drugs invading the body, are climaxes one after another. I can't help thinking, is it a long and short orgasm that is cool, or a short and many orgasms that are enjoyable? The behavior of two people in Vegas is absurd, absurd, mentally retarded, crazy,...

      Fear of Las Vegas: "Stuck in Mobile Town" by Dr. Gang Zuo

      Dr. Gang Zuo played by Johnny Depp in the Gilliam movie "Fear of Las Vegas"

      "Fear of Las Vegas" is the representative work of Hunter Thompson (Dr. Gonzo), a representative of the new news, and is a "drug" novel on par with William Burroughs "Naked Lunch". But the two are fundamentally different. Just as we cannot...

      Is the world crazy? Or us?

      I have to admire that Terry Gilliam’s directorial level, the shaking of the lens, the combination of art and color, always let you take a trip. After watching the movie, it is like eating hallucinogen with the protagonist, rippling in the Las Vegas of that era. S. When the drug boom broke out in the 1960s, people began to use drugs to comfort their beautiful hearts that were destroyed by war and the world. A car, a little hallucinogen, some music, two lonely hearts are searching for their...

      From Fear Rhapsody to American Style Painting

      This movie is really a stream of consciousness.
      A mess of neuroticism.
      But I have to say that the picture quality is my favorite type.
      I wonder what the two of them are doing, doing nothing to do with drugs all day long, living in a five-star hotel, driving a high-priced sports car, life is really comfortable, this is dream.

      The movie is full of all kinds of lonely, frustrated, desperate people.
      Photojournalists represent lustful Americans. The old couple...

      The whole film is a chaotic scene after taking LSD, and the deliberately artificial performance looks like "Moncler and the Holy Grail" as nonsensical and absurd, but this is not to say a story that is essentially absurd. It was obviously a failed experiment by Terry...

      A two-hour fascinating experience, following Depp and Toro in a convertible, knocking endless poisons flying all the way, a world full of imagination, distorted and distorted, there is no tranquility, no awakeness, trouble like raindrops, Gilliam Tortures the two protagonists like crazy, and also makes the camera dizzy. It can continue to create a sense of hallucination, tireless, and indeed...

    • Raoul Duke: Oh god... did you eat all this acid?

      Dr. Gonzo: That's right. MUSIC!

    • Raoul Duke: My attorney had never been able to accept the notion, often espoused by former drug abusers, that you can get a lot higher without drugs than with them, and neither have I for that matter.

    • Man on Phone in lobby: ...hamburger stand, she's a waitress about 16 years old. They chopped her goddamn head off right there in the parking lot. Then they cut all kinds of holes in her and sucked out the blood. They were after the peneal gland I think. Yeah. Nah, how's ya mama?
