Every Sunday, Gill delves into his archive of over 800 movie reviews and randomly selects three for your enjoyment! Here are this week’s…
Where The Buffalo Roam
A nice attempt at capturing the legend of Hunter Thompson on film. Bill Murray gives a good depiction of the famous Gonzo journalist in this fictionalized interpretation of actual events. A treat for Thompson fans, and a prime example of just how much of a cultural icon the manic, insane writer really was.
