To: Harvey Weinstein and The Weinstein Company

This petition is in regard to the erratic and unprofessional United States release of The Libertine.

By signing this petition, Johnny Depp fans worldwide are requesting that The Weinstein Company stop advertising dates of release and then pulling them. We are disgusted, disappointed and angry at the way this movie has been handled. You have insulted Johnny Depp and his fellow crew members that worked so hard in making this film.

We feel your business decisions used in the management of The Libertine, not unlike your other distributions of previous Johnny Depp films; show an appalling lack of respect for him and his exemplary talent.

Please do your duty as a movie distributor, fulfill your obligations to us and all concerned and release the Libertine in the United States NOW.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned

Robust cheering and clapping in the Shrine Auditorium welcomed Johnny’s acceptance speech via satellite transmission.
