Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is a 1998 American black comedy adventure film based on Hunter S. Thompson's novel of the same name. It was co-written and directed by Terry Gilliam and stars Johnny Depp and Benicio del Toro as Raoul Duke and Dr. Gonzo, respectively. The film details the duo's journey through Las Vegas as their initial journalistic intentions devolve into an exploration of the city under the influence of psychoactive substances.

Electrics

IBM Selectric

Raoul Duke (Hunter S. Thompson, played by Johnny Depp) is frequently seen using a red, first generation IBM Selectric that he treats more like a portable typewriter than the large, fifty-pound machine it is (like the real Hunter S. Thompson). It is badly damaged and vandalized by the end of the film.
