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 American dream. When they drove on the highway after they were finished, Thompson hallucinated seeing a patch of bats. When he recovered, the medicine was over and the bats were gone. They drove on, and when the camera pulled, a dead bat was lying on the highway. Are we crazy? Or this world?

    The film is adapted from Hunter S Thompson's novel. What is more topical than this author's book is actually his life, and there is even a film dedicated to this writer (reporter). It's enough to watch the movie once. The process of watching it is really sad. I think I will never understand the actions in the movie if I haven't used drugs.

    "Every young man who has awakened from mainstream society is looking for himself. In addition to parades and travel, they also try to degenerate." The film critic said very well. Although the film was dizzy, it still felt good. I haven't tried it, how can I know what is poison and what is medicine? If you know that it is poisonous, if it is medicine, let's go to save sentient beings!

  • Raoul Duke: Those of us that had been up all night were in no mood for coffee and donuts, we wanted strong drink. We were, after all, the absolute cream of the national sporting press.
