I will see any movie with Johnny Depp, because even if it reeks here and there, he's always a redeeming little part of it. My favorite character of his is not The Hatter (pictured), I think I would pick Agent Sands from Once Upon a Time in Mexico. What's your favorite Depp character?

I think my fave is Ed Wood -- love that movie! Altho I agree with you, anything he's in is worth watching.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, love Ed Wood and Edward Scissorhands (both the characters and movies)... Jack Sparrow (*Captain* Jack Sparrow) of course...
ReplyDeleteDebra has it correct! Really an amazing performance in Ed Wood. My favortie as well.
ReplyDeleteand worth noting that the real Ed Wood was quite a character too, and perfectly cast, as were Bela Lugosi, Criswell, etc.
ReplyDeleteHe and I are the same age!
ReplyDeleteDr. Monkey, I am *this many* {holds up all her fingers and thumbs} years older than you and JD.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is his portrayal of Hunter Thompson in "Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas". He was absolutely brilliant in the role.
ReplyDeleteI do agree though that he's always worth watching, and can make a bad movie watchable.
the jack sparrow character has to be the best...but i loved him in once a time in mexico and edward scissorhands...but ed wood was terrific..
ReplyDeleteI really liked him in Don Juan DeMarco. But also, yeah I have to admit I loved Captain Jack!
ReplyDeleteI have to go with "Fear & Loathing" as well. LOVED it.
