L.o’s Encounter

hey guys, well, just got back from london about 45 mins ago, and brace yourselves, because i can guarentee this will be my longest post! and iv done some long ones! hu-hum.—

o.k, well, we got to leister square at about, half four, cos we wanted to take in the atmosphere and everything, and the time went really quickly, as we were standing behing the gates, this woman said, “god, iv broken into alot of places, but this security guards the worst!” cos he wasnt even looking at more people going behind the gates when it was restricted Rolling Eyes anyway, we got to talking, and, stroke of luck, she was the producer of Q and A at the bafta rehearsal which was on the same night!and johnny was doing it! Shocked Very Happy so i asked her questions like would he be coming in for the intro and everything, she was so useful, and funny-and then, it started absolutly POORING IT DOWN with rain, england style, so my hair was compleatly drenched Rolling Eyes but i didnt care that much, but i was unbearably cold! so, when the woman had to go, i held her arm and just said “look, you have such a better chance at getting this to him than i do, please just try,” and she said” oh, no look, i cant do autographs, ” and i said “no, its not an autograph, i just want you to give him this letter” so she goes “right,

A Fan’s Encounter

I took a friend of mine to the Premiere last night as she is a huge JD fan, here is a report I posted elsewhere.

Well, we went and we saw!!

We hung around as long as possible outside hoping he would arrive and then we could follow on BUT 6.29 came and the tix said we had to be seated by 6.30 so we went in.
We did see Christopher Lee arrive and McKenzie Crook (Wooden eye guy in POTC)

We took our seats and they had live coverage on the screen of what was going on outside, which was of course Johnny and Kate arriving and signing autographs for hours (it seemed!) then being interviewed in the foyer.

I was a little despondent by then cos I knew they would be sitting in the circle and I thought my friend wasn’t going to get a glimpse of him . However, there was lots of excitement from the rear and I looked around and in the far back corner on OUR side was JD and everybody lurking. We were 6 seats in from that side and roughly in the middle rows. Cat Deeley (Brit presenter) came on the stage and introduced Miramax boss Harvey Wotsit, who in turn introduced the Director who in turn introduced all the stars. By this time, the stars had moved down the side and stood waiting to be introduced during the speeches and guess who stood at the end of our row!!??

Empire, October 2004 – The Family of Pan

News by

Title: The Family of Pan
Author: Mark Salisbury
Publication: Empire
Issue: October 2004 

IT’S A WARM AUGUST EVENING IN 2002 TOWARD THE END of the Finding Neverland shoot, and Johnny Depp, as playwright J.M. Barrie and Dustin Hoffman, who plays his loyal theatrical producer Charles Frohman, are resplendent in their first-night finery of white tie and tails. They’ve spent the past few hours at the ornate, 19th-century Richmond Theatre in southwest London filming two scenes: one that takes place early in the movie, in which Frohman consoles Barrie after a disastrous opening night, and the other, late in the story, in which Barrie tries to reassure Frohman that tonight’s performance—the world pre­miere of Peter Pan—will be a sell-out. As director Marc Forster (Monster’s Ball) readies another take, Depp fires up hand-rolled cigarette and swaps jokes with Hoffman (who, having starred in Hook, is no stranger to the world of Neverland). Two of the best actors of their respective genera­tions, they make a fine double act, united by a mutual respect. “The two of them have this great balance, how they play off one another,” says Forster. “They have the same quality, this quality of being a child.”

That’s a compliment Peter Pan himself would be the first to appreciate. Written a century ago, Barrie’s play about the boy who won’t grow up remains a seminal work of children’s literature, its characters—Peter, Wendy, Tinkerbell, Captain Hook—and defining themes as fresh and pertinent today as they were back then.

Floss’s Encounter

I wanted to share mine and kpnuts meeting with Johnny yesterday.

We had tried 6 times before to meet with him at Pinewood Studios and again at the Finding Neverland premiere. Yesterday was 7th time lucky!

We arrived at Pinewood at 5pm and went to the Timekeepers Office where we were told that Vanessa had been seen that morning but they weren’t sure if Johnny was still there. We decided to wait anyway and at about 6.30 one of the chaps I had spoken to on the Tuesday evening came over to tell us that he had found out that Johnny WAS still at the Studios and was having a drink in his trailer. He said if you wait you will see him – wave your arms about when you see his car.

It was a very cold evening and the security guys were kind and let us warm ourselves up in their office – we took it in turns – and they also made us cups of tea.

Anyway, around 8.45 we saw what we thought was Johnny’s car and I fumbled to get the poster I had with me to ask him to stop. However, he must have seen us because suddenly the car came to a halt next to us – a guy in the passenger seat got out and then there was Johnny emerging from the back seat.

Kpnutz’s Encounter

Just a couple of things about our wonderful encounter with Johnny at Pinewood yesterday…
The book I gave him was an autobiography of Jack Kerouac, author of *On the Road”. I know this is one of Johnny’s favourite books, so I thought he’d like it.

When he signed my pic, and I asked him to put “To Karen”, he said “So you’re Karen?” I’d dropped off a bottle of wine last Thursday, together with a letter, so I guess this is where I got the name from. I have also, via a contact in the production office, passed on a letter concerning the Birthday Project. I have been assured by the same contactthat this has been passed to Johnny via his assistant.

All I can say is that it was a wonderful experience meeting Johnny. It still hasn’t sunk in. He is just so mellow, and genuine, and to see him actually in the flesh was unbelievable.

Jo’s Pinewood Encounter

OK everyone, heres the latest story! Right, what I need to make clear
from the start is that Jerry (Johnnys security) told us they didnt
want any more people to be hanging around outside Pinewood as it was
getting too cold. He’s right, it was freezing last night.. Johnny
only has a few days left anyway now..

OK, I arrived at PW at about 5.30pm. Janine was already there,
standing with 3 other people, including a 12 year old boy called Joe
who was holding up a Jack picture 🙂 The security guys were being
really chatty and friendly with us. They told us what car Johnny was
in and ven made us cups of tea and coffee as we were so cold. Lisa
literally flew from London to Bucks in record time get there. She
arrived at about 7.10pm. I chatted to Mos for a bit and then went to
stand back outside and wait.

It was about 8.05pm when the car finally appeared. I knew it was his
straight away and moved forward. I saw Jerry sat inside and must have
had a pleading look on my face! Jerry pointed to the side of the road
and told us to move back. Then the car stopped, Jerry got out, opened
the back door and Johnny got out too!!
