![]() ![]() Before I saw it, I knew that it was the only film which Johnny Depp has directed. He refused to release the film in the United States. ![]() But it will certainly stay with you!! Depp was so upset at negative reviews by American critics attending an otherwise successful screening at the Cannes Film Festival. I can see why some people will not like it, and complain nothing happens. Thankfully Brando's screen time is limited and Luis Guzmàn pops up too. It's a slow mover, and truthfully it could have lost about 30 minutes and lost none of the impact. I don't think this is an easy watch, the first line of dialogue is not spoken until ten minutes into the film. Some of Depp's work is too sad or strange to watch often, but every movie in his unique filmography (at least at this point) deserves to be seen at least once. He is given one week before he must make the movie. Convinced that he has nothing to offer this world, he agrees to be tortured to death in a snuff movie in return for $50,000. Continuing my plan to watch every Johnny Depp movie in order, I come to his first, and to date, only directorial effort The Brave (1997) An unemployed alcoholic Native American Indian (Depp) lives on a trailer park with his wife and two children. ![]()
