Johnny Depp is the one of the actors more scheming of these ten last years. It likes the movie, of course, of the two sides of the movie camera, but it fascinates himself also for the music (it sings, it has a pretty voice), the literature (Antonin Artaud, as it reads in French) and the art (it draws and seen to Picasso an admiration without limits).

Usually stars grumble about talking about their heart blows, putting forward all sorts of reasons more or less convicing. Not Johnny Depp. While in the country for the promotion for his last film, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, he declares himself delighted to be questioned on his artistic tastes.

FORGET about luxury hotels, exclusive nightclubs and topless beaches. The French jet set are turning their backs on the hedonistic hot spots of the Riviera and seeking out more rustic pleasures on a windswept Atlantic island – by Matthew Campbell, Paris.

Anita Thompson said Depp paid for much of the celebration.

“We had talked a couple of times about his last wishes to be shot out of a cannon of his own design,” Depp told The Associated Press last month. “All I’m doing is trying to make sure his last wish comes true. I just want to send my pal out the way he wants to go out.”
