JOHNNY-DEPP.org

Well ladies this is the film that you have all been waiting for. Johnny Depp plays a romantic lead that will take your breath away. There is no describing the hypnotic web that he weaves in this great tale. Brought in by the tide of the river, as like a mythical creature, Johnny comes into the life of a lonely Chocolateer. Placed in France, Johnny is at home in this environment. You can see his true ?old soul? as he does less acting, and more revealing of his true nature here. Caring and sensitive, with a protective swing, he plays a gypsy named Roux who is a traveling free spirit. An outcast in the beginning, Roux assists to bring out the good in all the village folks. This movie will bring you to tears and laughs and can be enjoyed by the whole family. With very few, rescue me Johnny roles, this is one that will be a favorite for the swooners, as well as those in need of a true soft, hanging with your girlfriends story.

I always write these little reviews with a no spoilers policy, but this is fair warning; TEAR JERKER ALERT. While this is a totally different side to Johnny, I personally think that everyone will love it. Johnny plays, J.M. Barrie, the writer and inventor of Peter Pan. Short-cropped hair and clean-shaven, Johnny is the fresh-faced author who lives in his own dreamland. A wonderful tale of ?true love? this story expresses the nature of friendship and understanding. Barry, meets a family that is missing the essential link that he can provide and they in return inspire him to write the most famous story ever told. Artistically driven and very upfront in the character portrayals, the meaning behind this film will not be lost on even the youngest viewers. Flanked by awesome costars, Johnny will cause you to never look at Peter Pan and Neverland the same again. A family favorite in our house, Johnny shows his gentle side and reaches out to all ages in this film.

While we in Europe still have to wait, our staffer lizzy4depp had the chance to watch Sweeney Todd. Twice!

And the first thing she did at home was, writing this wonderful review for us all:

Short excerpt:

“…Whoever said that Johnny only sings in this movie obviously missed this piece, in which as his hands connect with the blades, turns into a poetic dance…”

It is wonderful to read, and you do not need to fear any spoilers. She did not tell anything about the story itself.

As the opening credits and music fill the screen, my mind is full of visions of the dark, violent bloody mess that may await me. Afraid to look at the screen but to enamored to look away, I hold my breath in anticipation of Johnny Depp’s entrance as this “demon barber.” I don’t have long to wait as the opening shot brings him right to the front of the screen as his newfound singing voice fills the air, something that is in no way a comparison to the listening of the soundtrack. The cinematography, a typical Tim Burton appearance, is familiar; yet beautiful in a strange compelling way. The biggest surprise is that the next hour and 55 minutes is not as much a scary horror-fest, as the press have painted it; but yet a scattering of giggles and laughter stemmed from the witty-sided humor that is peppered throughout the film. Helena is a shining star in this tale, standing out amongst the backdrop of the gloomy London streets.

The most fulfilling scene in this artist mural is the first song by Sweeny to his razors. Whoever said that Johnny only sings in this movie obviously missed this piece, in which as his hands connect with the blades, turns into a poetic dance. His beautiful fingers caressing and grasping the silver as he proceeds to sway his arms and gracefully move across the screen in something that resembles no less than a waltz, with the razors as his partner.

A few days before, we posted in the news, that Moviefone is going to ask Johnny and Tim Burton some questions sent in by US.

I did send my two questions in. One was “do you sometimes visit fan sites of your own?”.

And guess what? It really has been answered!!!

He in fact visits “fan”sites, but he wouldn’t call us fans, but admirers.

Because of this, we renamed Johnny-Depp.org from “a fansite dedicated to Johnny Depp and his work” to “an admirers’ site dedicated to Johnny Depp and his work”. I hope, you like it, dear admirers, and you, too, Johnny!

Click above to watch all of the clips, or, if you come from Europe, you won’t be able to watch them, so we’re just uploading them to the downloads section. There are some very interesting (and funny) facts!!
