Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (VI)
Friday, December 2, 2011 | 4:38 pmWhen she mentioned some accusations on her from those who supported Meryl Streep to play this role,ugg usa online Helena Bonham Carter said: ldquo;Some people thought I got this role because of my relationship with Tim. However, I never met Stephen Sondheim before, but he still chose me. rdquo; When Stephen Sondheim explained why he chose her to play this role among all these actresses, he said: ldquo;Even in the studio, she was still very beautiful and sexy. She knew clearly what she should do and what she could do. rdquo; The difference between her and Johnny Depp was Helena Bonham Carter actually found a well-known vocal music teacher Ian Adam who was very good at improving singing skills of those who didnrsquo;t have any singing experience at all.
The Dream Works also granted Johnny Depp and Tim Burton bigger space to perform more freely. They ranked the film as R-rated movie since the beginning, even though they knew they would lose a part of audiences. Tim Burton also referred to a large number of classic horror films. He and Johnny Depp all agreed they could gain inspirations from the performance of Peter Lorre in ldquo;Mad Loverdquo;. The batch of white hair of Todd in this film was probably coming from the figure of Humphrey Bogart in ldquo;The Return of Dr. Xrdquo; (one of Timrsquo;s favorite movies). Besides, Johnny Depp also personally appreciated the wonderful performance of Lon Chaney in ldquo;The Penaltyrdquo; very much. However, these two geniuses decided to drop the operatic style of Len Cariou or Michael Cerveris in the film version of ldquo;Sweeney Toddrdquo;. They said: ldquo;You knew this Todd should be a little different like a punk Todd. rdquo;
The biggest highlight of this film was to watch Johnny Depp singing on the big screen for the first time. After watching it, I thought this film was very gloomy.
