Johnny Depp's performance is quite remarkable. Sweeney's desire for revenge and the simmering anger and hurt that he feels carry the story forward, and Johnny finds the most remarkable variety within that narrow set of emotions. The intensity is at a boil all the time and he never drops it. It's real anger.

Math was my big interest when I was in prep school. I was considering taking math in college, and majoring in it.

What justifies a character singing one idea for 3 minutes on the screen? I get impatient and want the story to carry on. I don't get impatient in the theatre.

No one has ever known me as clearly as you. No one has ever shown me that love allows everything. Not pretty or safe or easy but something I never knew. Love within reason, that isn't love and I learned that from you.

I prefer neurotic people. I like to hear rumblings beneath the surface.

I'm interested in the theater because I'm interested in communication with audiences. Otherwise I would be in concert music.

I've always preferred actors who sing to singers who act in all the shows I've done.
