Johnny Depp is one of the most intriguing personalities to ever exist in the movie industry. I thought I knew a lot about him by know, but it turned out- I didn't nearly know enough. Image from www.amazon.com

It feels weird to have so many resources on anyone, especially when it comes to our favorite actors and musicians. Did I sound ancient? Well I did grow up in the 90s where we had to hunt down magazines for posters and collect every bit of info we could collect on people through whose work we expressed ourselves. Now it is easy and fun to find everything on the web.

But the web still can’t beat the feel of a color magazine with quality paper. And a book is even better, because you can squeeze so much more info into it. One such vast information source on one of my favorite actors, Johnny Depp, is the book written by Denis Meikle. The book is called: Johnny Depp, A Kind of Illusion. I couldn’t have thought of a better title…

Now, this book is a tremendous source for any Depp fan. It has detailed info on Johnny’s background, how he got to be in all his projects, his relationships, photos both from his films and real life. It has excerpts from some of his characters’ or other characters’ lines from movies, appropriately chosen. There are some excerpts from scripts and lots and lots of quotes from Johnny himself.

It is also a priceless information haven for any movie nut, with backstage notes and more.

I can’t say I read all of the pages- the edition I have has 374 pages, excluding the appendixes. But I find myself lost in the interesting world of Depp whenever I pick it up and learn something new. Wanna know everything about Johnny, without getting the feel of a tabloid?

Then this is the book. You can check it out on Amazon.
