Meet the Artists: Alex Gibney, Director of "Hunter S. Thompson"

Zoom-In Online is proud to present Meet the Artists, a production of the Sundance Institute, featuring conversations with some of the filmmakers showcasing their work at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival. From Oscar-nominated director Alex Gibney comes "Gonzo: The Life and Work of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson." Fueled by a raging libido, Wild Turkey and superhuman doses of drugs, Thompson was a true "free lance": goring sacred cows with impunity, hilarity and a steel-eyed conviction for writing wrongs. The film is entirely narrated by the words of Thompson himself -- from his letters, articles, manuscripts and books -- and is read - on camera and off, by Johnny Depp.
