My friend Sheila sent me a copy of the Newsweek article about Johnny Depp. It's rather wel-written, though I'm not sure it says anything I didn't already know. Among other things:

Depp, 43, is almost pathologically unpredictable. He can be bizarre, hilarious, unsettling -- even annoying. But he is never the same. He's the anti-Tom Cruise. "Nothing against Tom, but Johnny may be a bigger star now," says director John Waters, who cast Depp in 1990's "Cry-Baby." "Nobody is sick of Johnny Depp."

Well, Johnny Depp hasn't made a fool of himself publicly, either.

There's a great description of him: "Time slows down when you're with Johnny Depp. He seems like a man who has never rushed to, or from, anywhere in his life... And once he's with you, he never seems in a hurry to leave. His voice is a soft, low mumble. His body is in almost constant motion -- rolling those cigarettes, rubbing an elbow, reaching for a glass -- but the rhythm is tranquil and fluid, like a cat licking its paw."

I read an interesting article the other day with him talking about when his kids were born, and how it made him suddenly realize the things in his life that were really important... like making sure they were taken care of, and safe, etc.

It was so obvious from the interview that having kids totally transformed him... made my ovaries ache. :)

It was a lovely article.

Lots of people have turning points in their lives, and different things can trigger it - obviously, in the case of Depp, it was his children. I wonder: if it were not for them, would there have been something else that would have caused similar changed in him? Obviously it would have to be something profound.
