Beautiful Story, portrayed beautifully!

Rating: 10/10 (21 September 2005)

This is a story about childhood and growing up to fast. This is a story about love, falling out of and falling into love. This is a poignant story about playing pretend and wanting to believe hard enough and long enough to make it come true! Johnny Depp is amazing! In 1991 I watched "Edward Scissorshands" with my children (8 & 9). At the time I thought the actor that played Edward (Johnny Depp) was a great character actor. I had never seen Johnny Depp in anything before that. Shortly after that publicity about Johnny Depp caused me to "write him off", I decided I did not want to support his behavior by paying to watch his work. In May of this year (2005) I went to Blockbuster to pick up a movie. I chose "Finding Neverland" based solely on the case picture. After the movie had ended and I had stopped sobbing I wondered, "Who is that actor?" When I read "Johnny Depp" I said out loud to no one in particular - NO WAY! I'm drawn to find other Johnny Depp movies - see what he has done in his career.
