Benicio Del Toro looks like a dead man himself in that pic.

Thompson lived in a "fortified compound"?

One might think is sanity was not all it should have been toward the end.

My current favorite HST anecdote involves someone, at his home, asking him to sign a book, which he prompty took outside and shot a hole through, by way of an autograph.
