THE RUM DIARY
October 7th, 2011
THE RUM DIARY- 2011. Synopsis by Netflix. “Eager to flee his humdrum life in 1950s New York, booze-loving journalist Paul (Johnny Depp) moves to Puerto Rico and begins writing for a local rag, but his life becomes unhinged when he falls for a gorgeous woman (Amber Heard) and clashes with her shifty fiancé (Aaron Eckhart). Written and directed by Bruce Robinson, this adaptation of Hunter S. Thompson’s early novel also stars Richard Jenkins as Paul’s editor.”
10/28/11- Barely OK review in today’s NY Times. TRDB.
3/5/12- Most reviews were bad but not as bad as the movie. I turned it off. What was Johnny Depp thinking? TRDB. Netflix.
