Review of The Rum Diary (2011) by Deanna B — 02 Dec 2012
Johnny Depp who plays the role of Paul Kemp, an American journalist who goes to work for a small and struggling newspaper in the America owned island of Puerto Rico during the 1960s. It has a lot of atmosphere but no real plot hooks.
Depp channels Hunter magnificently, there is lots of drinking and a 'go nowhere' romantic sub-plot, but it just isn't that interesting.
