Sweeney Todd (Another Depp/Burton collaboration)

[TSteven]

One of my all time favorite musicals.

I saw the original Broadway production (on Broadway, original cast) and the more recent revised version - where all the actors are also the orchestra - here in San Francisco (touring company but most of the actors were in the original Broadway cast). Both amazing productions.

I have always wondered how they could convey the live theatre experience of Sweeny Todd to film. But with Burton, Depp, and Carter, I have a feeling this will not disappoint.

Depp sounds really good!!

Color me surprised...

I honestly believe that Depp is one of the greatest actors of all time...but that's just me!

Sister, you and I are in total agreement here.

Depp originally came to L.A. to sing . . . (had a band)

Attend the tale of Sweeny Todd.
He serves a dark and a vengeful god.

What happened then, well that's the play,
and he wouldn't want us to give it away...
