I havend seen all of this movie, but I wann order it as soon as there is a discount on the DVD on amazon.

**White Noise** · 12-30-2008, 08:28 AM

This is one of the few again, that I have not seen in full.

Only bits and pieces, but from what I heard, it is a great film!

MissMi · 12-30-2008, 09:54 AM

That's too bad. Hope you get to see it

It's kind of slow paced but I think it's very beautiful.

He also directed this one and I think his brother worked on it with something as well, I think writing or something

Katinka · 12-30-2008, 03:56 PM

The idea is nice but sad, to die for the once you love the most...

**White Noise** · 12-30-2008, 04:25 PM

I hope to find it in my video store or something.

Katinka · 12-30-2008, 04:55 PM

I will look it up on amazon.

**White Noise** · 12-30-2008, 04:56 PM

But even if I can't find it IN my video store, they can usually order it.

Katinka · 12-30-2008, 05:06 PM

I wanna own all his movies on DVD and most of them I already have on my shelf

**White Noise** · 12-30-2008, 05:10 PM

^^ I'm the same. It's the earlier work that's harder to find. Like The Brave and Arizona Dream.

Katinka · 12-30-2008, 05:20 PM

Arizona Dream I already have.

This movie it's one of my faves , thanx for the thread Melika .

Here some Johnny quotes about the movie

"We always say 'I would kill for my family' or 'I would die for my family', but would you really? I mean, when really put in that situation, would you really give up your life? Do you really love something or someone that much?"
--Johnny Depp

“ I totally invested me in this movie, so I had to put much more about myself in it than any other.”
--Johnny Depp

"I should be commited to an institution immediately for even thinking I could get away with that. These two things [acting and directing] are opposing, they oppose one another. To be a director, you have to be in complete control of the set, complete control of the surroundings, and very aware of what's going on, what's being used and what's not being used... It's insanity. To be an actor, you have to be, in a sense, out of control."
--Johnny Depp

Thanks for those quotes Karla!

Based on his quotes, it seems like this is one of those roles where he really revealed himself the most.

I really want to get my hands on this movie now!
