This Thursday Grimm Up North present the final instalment of their series of film screenings based of the works of cutting edge contemporary authors at the amazing new venue of the recently renovated Manchester Central Library. Do not miss this chance to catch Terry Gilliam’s adaptation of Hunter S. Thompson’s cult classic Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas on the big screen again.

The film details a wacky search for the “American Dream”, by Thompson and his crazed, Samoan lawyer. Fueled by the massive amount of drugs they purchased with an advance from a magazine to cover a sporting event in Vegas; they set out in the Red Shark. Encountering police, reporters, gamblers, racers, and hitch-hikers; they search for some undefinable thing know only as the “American Dream” and find fear, loathing and hilarious adventures into the dementia of the modern American West.
