Behind the Movie "Sweeny Todd" 

This comment is so underrated.

Omg this comment is genius

Plus depps love intrest in their movies is always Helena bonham carter, and she is tim's wife

Free Bee well not anymore

no they aren't

I liked his interpretation, but I disagree with your comment. In fact, in the movie, Sweeney is portrayed way more evil than he is in the musical. He lacks empathy and emotional response. He seems much “darker” and dead inside. I loved the movie, and I love the character, but I wouldn’t say it was my favorite interpretation of Sweeney. He lacked... a more human personality I guess.

@@jasperteamo123 what's your favorite? :D

I'm a bit late, bur I partically disagree with you. Tho he isn't evil, he lost his mind when Turpin left her barber shop. He became mad, and not evil. He wanted revenge, and his family back so much, that he killed everyone who stepped in.

Tamara 10.C Földesi I remember writing this but can’t believe it was two years ago omg 😂

johnny did an amazing job. it must’ve been really hard. but johnny is always great at playing weird roles

THIS RIGHT HERE ❤

​@@simona-elenapietrosu5310 bruh its been 5 years

I agree but at the same time Johnny Depp always sounds hot

@@wrenjohnston113 agreed

Johnny Depp sounds hot with any accent ngl

Oh yeassh

definitely. and even without an accent he does. but its alan rickman that has the hottest voice. thats why he’s always perfect for playing sexy, dramatic, charismatic villans

Matilda White um no. she didn’t. You can find it simply by googling the name.

@Matilda White yeah right

the HP film cast, had a break before the next HP flm. WE MISS EACH OTHER, SO WE'RE ORKING TOGETHER ON Another project ;)

Yes! Oh my Good! I was looking for this comment!!!

If he is talking I Cry. He is so Good in acting. If he's talent going lost iam not happy.

He died on my bday

Nice picture

Ashley Katsanes I feel sorry for you Maya Angelou died on my Bday

i just relisted he was dead #derp

YES! I agree 1000%

That is very funny.

i love johnny’s voice when he says that

Kaylee Jo *four actors if you count Johnny depp as grindelwald in fantastic beasts

Kaylee Jo 5 actors: Helena bonham carter/ bellatrix, Timothy spall/ peter pettigrew, alan rickman/ snape, jamie Campbell bower/ Grindelwald (deathly hallows 1) johnny depp/ Grindelwald (fantastic beasts)

you sure it's not the title? *sweeny*

i would say the scariest song was God thats good. that was freaking terrifying. seeing all those customers eating the pies and becoming cannibals without even knowing. so messed up. but scarriest scene... hmmm... i don’t find the movie very scary, just freaking messed and dark. hmmm... maybe when sweeney kills mrs lovett. freaky death. or maybe when toby realizes the meat pies are made outta humans. the visuals give me goosebumps

@@saklee1777 poor toby.

Pikachu At The Disco 8 My favorite FAVORITE Tim Burton movie

Pikachu At The Disco 8 I agree

Not the best interpretation of the musical (at least not the most accurate to Sondheim’s rendition), but definitely pretty good.

i know i shouldnt, but i do absolutely love this movie. because 1. johnny depp, helena bonham carter, and alan rickman (my fav 3 actors) 2. its tim burton’s 3. the singing and song writing was great 4. the entire cast did perfect in their roles, 5. the makeup, outfits, art, and atmosphere was perfect. and storyline was just well i don’t even know what to say. but a movie where the main protagonists are more evil than the antagonists? i never see movies like that. and to think a musical could be so dramatic and tragic and depressing and so dark and freaky yet still have good songs. i must say, in the song God thats good, it freaks me out so much especially when they sing “eat them slow and fill the crust at thinner roll” and u just see everyone eating the pies

chokladen94 origins lol

Hannah Shribman-Brown you should totally watch it! It's one of the best tim burton movies!

Now I've seen it, and I like it. Not as much as the musical, and I still think Helena Boneham Carter was majorly miscast - she's just not malicious enough - but otherwise it was good, and I was right about Burton's direction being a perfect fit for the material. Also, a lot of songs were cut down or left out completely, like Judge Turpin's "Johanna" and Änthony and Johanna's "Kiss Me". Plus the opening song "The Ballad Of Sweeney Todd" and its many reprises all cut out, although it's still recognizable in the instrumentals, especially this one part: "Swing your razor high, Sweeney, hold it to the sky..." Still disappointed about the song being cut out as it is an overarching piece for the musical, but oh well. Originally the opening would have the ghosts of Sweeney's victims singing it, but the other reprises probably would've been cut out anyway - hard to translate to film.

@@strawberrysoulforever8336 Tho I haven't seen the musical yet, I agree with you, but I think they left some of the songs out, because it would have been too long, for a movie. If we think about this as a simple movie by Tim Burton, I think it's pretty awesome. I think the actors and the whole team did a great job.

@@tamarafoldesi7720 Well, there was very little spoken dialogue in both versions. Many problems the movie had that wasn't in the musical was actually in Musical Hell's review, that is up here (she reviews film adaptations of musicals, mostly bad). She didn't think it was as bad as most musical movies she reviewed, praising several areas, but also listed several problems.

isnt he supposed to be like 50 in the play? johnny depp at this time was in his 40s or 50s. i must say, johnny always looks so much younger than he is though. even now he’s still hot as always

english please?

omg since i was 4

Coopl

Chloe Gater You couldn't appreciate any of the depth and maturity when you were 5. Meaning all that's left is Killing that you would understand. What else is there to understand as a child that young. You literally sociopath.

Yes

Oh yesss😂😂😂

i see some of tim burton’s favorite actors to work with. and my 3 fav actors

Not really, but I suppose I see the resemblance.

Alan Rickman would’ve been perfect for Judge Frollo. R.I.P.

Agreed with you! ^^ Say, do you remember the title of that interview? I have a faint memory of Depp saying he forgot he was Sweeney, but can't seem to remember from where.

Oh yeahhhh

@@113faridanur6 that would be amazing!

He won the golden globe for best actor in a musical motion picture.

Yes because he wants to show he's singing voice.

+VrouwtjesGamen NL still, I can't take him seriously now xD

He's also in Les Miserables

That sounds cool. Hope it all went well
