A rare thing at the movies (namely, a musical) hits the screen tomorrow as Johnny Depp plays the title role in director Tim Burton's film version of Stephen Sondheim's stage production, Sweeney Todd. (Whew, try doing a diagram of that sentence, sports fans!)
Kind of a grim feature for the holidays, but it looks like a good one! The show has been receiving positive reviews, like this one. Depp is certainly an excellent actor, but can he sing? Well, he doesn't have the usual pipes of a Broadway star, but this clip shows he's no slouch in the music department, either. Here's a short clip of Sweeney singing "My Friends."
