New Johnny Depp Movie Hits Theaters

Johnny Depp has some serious fans and in my opinion, his best movie

moments were not in Pirates of the Carribean. One of my favorite

Johnny Depp movies is Secret Window. Perhaps because I love to write,

but also because it tells the story of the inner struggles of a man

which many could relate to, whether you are a writer or not. There is

a scene with the man who accuses Johnny Depp's character, Mort, of

stealing his story that had a line that I liked. Johnny Shooter, who

is really Mort's subconscious in character, questions him about his

smoking and Mort says he just picked up on the habit for his health.

Later on, he says "I don't care. I'm just gonna smoke. I'm just gonna

totally smoke. I'll finish these, go to the store and get a brand new

pack, and smoke the shit out of that one." That was the part of the

movie where I was cued that Mort and Johnny Shooter were possibly the

same character (because Johnny smoked). It was all very interesting

and the movie was very engaging to me.

Johnny Depp was also in Blow, and I don't know what it is about drug

dealer movies that get me so worked up. I've never sold drugs and

everything I know about selling drugs came from second-hand experience

or the movies. Still movies that draw an entire economy around drugs

that expand globally, I guess that all intrigues me. Johnny's

character in that movie was named George who goes over to his friend

Derek's house with 100 pounds of blow asking him to sell it. Derek

says it will take a year and the scene shifts over a few days later

counting stacks of cash to Derek saying "36 hours. I can't believe I

sold it all in 36 hours!" And then George says something about it

taking longer to count the cash than it did to sell it. Blow was a

good movie too and this movie moment was definitely my favorite Johnny

Depp movie moment.

But that may change with his new flick hitting theaters later this

month. Sweeny Todd is another Steven King novel turned movie and is

about a barber coming out of prison to avenge the death of his wife.

An evil barber? I could totally see Johnny Depp rocking that role!
