I like to eat breakfast alone, and almost never before noon; anybody with a terminally jangled lifestyle needs at least one psychic anchor every twenty-four hours, and mine is breakfast. In Hong Kong, Dallas, or at home—and regardless of whether or not I have been to bed—breakfast is a personal ritual that can only be properly observed alone, and in a spirit of genuine excess. The food factor should always be massive: four Bloody Marys, two grapefruits, a pot of coffee, Rangoon crêpes, a half-pound of either sausage, bacon, or corned-beef hash with diced chilies, a Spanish omelette or eggs Benedict, a quart of milk, a chopped lemon for random seasoning, and something like a slice of key lime pie, two margaritas and six lines of the best cocaine for dessert…Right, and there should also be two or three newspapers, all mail and messages, a telephone, a notebook for planning the next twenty-four hours, and at least one source of good music…all of which should be dealt with outside, in the warmth of a hot sun, and preferably stone naked.

Trailer: The Rum Diary - Oct 28

Written and Directed by Bruce Robinson. Starring Johnny Depp, Amber Heard, Richard Jenkins, and Aaron Eckhart.

It may not be verbatim what Hunter S. Thompson wrote but then again how could it ever be. Robinson and Depp seem to pulling something off here and I’m damn well intrigued. Besides, I’d take Depp as this Tourist over last year’s. Also, Amber Heard.

THE RUM DIARY TO BE OUT IN THEATERS OCTOBER 28TH 2011

The Good Doctor, Hunter S. Thompson, photographed in Las Vegas, 1971.

Still no release date on The Rum Diary, Bruce Robinson’s adaptation of Hunter S. Thompson’s first novel. Johnny Depp reprises his role as HST (this time as a cipher character called Paul Kemp). The film was shot more than a year ago, and based on this title card, it seems they have the whole movie in the can (titles are usually the last element finished), they’re just waiting for a release date. Rumor says sometime in 2011, an awfully long time to wait.
