Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is Terry Gilliam's 1998 film adaptation of Hunter S. Thompson's gonzo journalism classic, starring Johnny Depp as Raoul Duke and Benicio del Toro as his attorney, Dr. Gonzo. The German word Anwalt in the title points to that lawyer character, whose wild, unpredictable behaviour became a shorthand for the film's chaotic road trip. Short dialogue clips like this one circulate on soundboards and in meme edits because they instantly signal excess, paranoia and a journey veering off course.
