We’ve had a very minimalist poster for The Rum Diary, and this new poster looks to ask “Where’s the rum gone?”.
The Rum Diary follows the story of journalist Paul Kemp (Depp) who kinds himself down on his luck and working for a newspaper in the Caribbean. The film is directed by Bruce Robinson of Withnail & I fame, and based on a novel Hunter S. Thompson.

I’m very anxious to see Depp embody the good doctor again! Thompson influenced the past few generations with his invention of Gonzo Journalism. His work and antics will live on to influence even more generations to come. I paid tribute to Hunter S Thompson and his work with my portrait and article on my artist’s blog at http://dregstudiosart.blogspot.com/2011/02/in-memoriam-hunter-s-thompson.html
