Johnny Depp

Biography

"The most important thing an actor can do for a film is to provide choices" From his rebel persona in the 1990s to becoming a box-office phenomenon as Jack Sparrow in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" franchise, Johnny Depp has evolved as a multi-faceted performer and cultural icon. His film career began with a remarkable debut in "Nightmare on Elm Street" (1984), which led to a career filled with challenging roles. His chameleon-like ability to embody diverse and eccentric characters is best exemplified by his collaboration with Tim Burton, which began with "Edward Scissorhands" (1990) and spanned more than two decades, resulting in some of the most memorable characters in film history. For Depp, acting is about reacting authentically in the moment. He stresses the importance of giving the director choices, ensuring that every take has a unique and impactful edge. In addition to being an actor, Depp is a musician and founder of his own production company, Infinitum Nihil. Despite the controversies surrounding his personal life, his influence on film and culture remains indisputable.

Life Sucks - Have Some Chocolat

Whatever you do, don’t talk to me about the economy right now. Or politics. Or even whatever insane thing is going around on social media. As my mother always tells me, I can’t do anything about it so there’s no point worrying… But in order not to worry, I have to know and think about it as little as possible. One little problem with that, though: I like movies, and every movie coming out these days seems to be either suuuuper political or suuuuper bland, neither of which is really going to give

The Life and Death of Val Kilmer: An Actor's Allegory

Val Kilmer, the renowned actor known for films like Batman Forever, The Doors, and Heat, has passed away at the age of 65 after a long battle with cancer. His daughter stated that the cause of death was pneumonia. In 2022, Kilmer made a brief return in Top Gun: Maverick, but due to throat cancer, he was no longer able to speak normally. His autobiographical documentary Val offers perhaps the best window into the life of this former "Batman." The film was selected for the 2021 Cannes Film Festiva

Lucas.: Since he passed, I've seen tons of clips online from Tombstone. This looks like a movie I'd love. I gotta watch it, in honour of Val

From Screen to Saddle: How a Film Festival Led Me to Explore Basque Country by Bike

This year, at the 72nd San Sebastian International Film Festival (SSIFF), nine new films premiered in the Zinemira section, a category which focuses on Basque productions. I watched six of them and discovered how a historically influential film festival can have a profound impact on the host region’s culture—especially in a distinctive region like the Basque Country, where the people speak a unique language and take pride in their rich cultural heritage. A significant film festival can inspire l

Late Bedtime Because Johnny Depp Brought ‘Modi’ to San Sebastian Himself

Late Bedtime Because Johnny Depp Brought ‘Modi’ to San Sebastian Himself As a dedicated cinephile, when attending international film festivals, I always try to avoid screenings where filmmakers are present, and I dread encountering celebrities. Does this sound contradictory? Or perhaps a bit pretentious? It’s important to note there’s a key premise here: maximizing the number of screenings I can attend remains my most ambitious goal after years of attending film festivals around the world. When

Why is "Beetlejuice" Worth Making a Sequel of in 2024?

As Beetlejuice Beetlejuice topped the North American box office for two consecutive weeks, we can finally admit that we underestimated the influence of Beetlejuice, a 1988 cult classic. Among Tim Burton's works, it didn’t sell as well as Batman or Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, nor did it earn the critical acclaim of Edward Scissorhands, Ed Wood, or Big Fish. It seems understandable why it was overlooked. But, as it turns out, Beetlejuice is the Tim Burton movie most suited for a sequel in 2

Looking for a Hollywood Star Who Actually Knows & Loves Cinema History? Winona is the One.

The successful release of Beetlejuice Beetlejuice has brought back the pop culture of the 1980s. One of the most iconic faces of that era—Winona Ryder—has naturally returned to the spotlight thanks to her role in this movie. However, unlike most stars, the reason for her media presence is not celebrity gossip but her profound love for cinema. While promoting Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, Winona Ryder visited the offices of The Criterion Collection in New York and stepped into their famed Criterion Cl

Cillian Murphy: The Dark Blaze

One can see very few blazes of color in Cillian Murphy’s most important film characters. The brightest one is the transvestite in Breakfast on Pluto (2005), one who basks in his (or her) pink bubbles of imagery all along. Whether it’s his mother’s abandonment, reprimands from his teachers for his sexual orientation, the loss of his friend in terrorist attacks or being forced into prostitution in poverty-stricken alleys, he remains unchanged. There seems to be no trace of negativity in him, only
