Johnny Depp’s Infinitum Nihil acquires the rights to Ken Rijock’s THE LAUNDRY MAN

by

The Laundry Man is the remarkable story of an ordinary man caught up in an extraordinary life” — so says Amazon.com’s description of Ken Rijock’s new book, to which (according to an interview with the author in the London Times) Johnny Depp has just acquired the film rights. Rijock acted as a money launderer for Colombian and U.S. drug dealers in the 1980s . . . even while he was involved in a love affair with a beautiful police officer. That’s a complication! Eventually Rijock was caught and agreed go undercover for the DEA; now he works with banks and governments to track the new generation of money launderers. “It’s a great feeling to catch criminals at their own game, to be a force for good,” Rijock said in a recent interview. “But I guess a part of me will always be the laundry man.”

Johnny at the MTV Movie Awards – A painting

News by

I’ve never before posted my artwork here, but Martina urged me to show you my latest painting.
I spent about 72.5 hours creating an oil painting of 100 x 60 cm, trying to make it look as realistic as possible.
I hope you like it.

I took photos of the painting while it was still in progress. Martina was so kind to create a little animation. Click on the picture to watch:

You find my artwork at www.ina-schulz.de and at deviantART.

FAQ staffer desperately needed

Uncategorized by Martina

We’re still – desperately – looking for someone who’d like to join our crew for answering the FAQ questions that are coming in daily (and sorting out the old questions that are outdated). You don’t need any html knowledge for this. Everything is done through our easily to navigate admin panel. You should have a good knowledge about Johnny, though, and your English should be quite well (I’m not a good example)

And we’re also still in need for an all round talent (means a new main administrator) that can basically manage the whole site even if I’m not at home and/or someone especially for help in the galleries (adding pics as they come in).

Drop me a mail to admin@johnny-depp.org if you’re interested.
For everything you should be conform with our “respecting Johnny’s privacy” policy.

Total Film, July 2012 – Dark Shadows

News by

Title: Dark Shadows

Author: Matt Glasby

Publication: Total Film

Issue: July 2012

 

Photo1AWOKEN AFTER BEING buried for 200 years, reluctant vampire Barnabas Collins (Johnny Depp) comes across his first taste of 1970s-style civilization: a tarmac road leading through the forbidding forest. “This is curious terrain,” he pronounces. It most certainly is.

The latest salvo in a lifelong mission to bring outsider cinema inside, Tim Burton’s 15th feature mixes the personal and the populist, the offbeat and the inappropriate to create a genre-defying Frankenweenie of a movie. It doesn’t always work, but there’s much beautiful mess along the way.

Created by Dan Curtis, who made cult favourites The Night Stalker and Burnt Offerings, the original Shadows TV show was a gothic soap opera that ran from 1966-71 before being syndicated to infinity. As children, director and star were enraptured by what the New York Times termed its “breathtakingly low-rent production values and equally breathtakingly purple dialogue”. Thankfully Shadows 2012 has rather more of one than the other. The film features a troupe of Burton regulars plus ace cameos from Christopher Lee and Alice Cooper, and supporting turns from a vampy Eva Green and the ever-creepy Jackie Earle Haley. It’s a good fit but still an odd choice, and when you’re retooling a 1,225-episode show, which story do you tell? At times it feels like all of them…
