i usually don’t really care about actors, directors etc. of films. but from time to time, a name recurrs often and impressively enough that i remember it. one such name is johnny depp. after some movies with him, i noticed that all movies i can remember him from were good. which is a good sign. so far, i saw
- edward scissorhands,
- the ninth gate,
- sleepy hollow,
- dead man,
- ed wood,
- pirates of the caribbean i,
- pirates of the caribbean ii,
- pirates of the caribbean iii,
- corpse bride,
- alice in wonderland.
- chocolat,
(the order is hopefully the order in which i saw them.) and as far as i remember, all of them are very good. movies i wouldn’t mind to watch again. (and again.) in fact, some of them i watched several times, in particular dead man, one of my most favorite movies. (i’m somewhat surprised i never wrote something about it. i guess i have to do that as soon as i see it again, which will be hopefully around christmas.) i first saw dead man somewhen late on tv, i’m not sure anymore why. maybe because i read that it had an interesting improvised soundtrack by neil young. anyway, this movie just blew me away.
two of the above movies, namely corpse bride and alice in wonderland, i saw on planes (air canada probably), somewhere between calgary and frankfurt.
the first pirates of the caribbean also has a special place in my memories. when watching it the first time, we had someone in the audience who, at a very few occasions, shouted something into the movie theater. i usually hate that, but this time, it made everything even more hilarious. it was just great.

:) ich sage dazu mal nur, daß ich [auch] ein grooßer johnny depp-fan bin. habe aber noch nicht so viel von ihm gesehen…
ich hab erst in letzter zeit angefangen gezielt filme zu gucken in denen johnny depp mitspielt, nachdem mir aufgefallen ist dass ich eigentlich alle filme die ich bis zu dem zeitpunkt mit ihm gesehen hab gut fand. ausserdem hab ich den vorteil, dass ich dank dvd-regal in der wohnung sowie flügen ab und an “neue”, mir bisher unbekannte filme mit ihm finden kann.
one film to add to this list: sweeny todd. another good one :)
