Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas
In Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas, Depp’s Raoul Duke is over-the-top, endlessly entertaining and layered with so much dry comedic nuances and deep philosophical insight that one has to wonder where he places himself in this balancing act.
The contrast between the cartoon-eccentricity and deep existential crises offers plenty upon repeated viewing and resonates strongly with the disenfranchised.
Duke is another one of Depp's conflicted characters that both enlightened and entertained plenty, and is also one of his most memorable to date.
