+glennjridge ROFL the first time i watched this movie i was like 17 years old with my very first girlfriend and i laughed so hard she had to footslap my ass back to reality,yyyyyeaahhhh,cuz real barbaz slit their gay-ass patrons throats while singing songs and thinking about their long lost daughters =))))).
I don't know what's funnier: how Rickman suddenly and unexpectedly sticks his face right into Depp's and breaks into song? Or how he suddenly goes into the "bam-bam-ba-ba-ba-bam" part.
I think his and Johnny Depp’s really go together well in this - I don’t know whether it’s their different ranges or the accents but they really compliment each other when they’re harmonising together.
I guarantee many experts were working away in the background trying their best to make it sound remotely like either one if these could actually sing ...
Personally I think that's exactly why it works so well. If you had first heard this without the context you would likely never realize the tension of the scene.
The entire movie is a masterpiece , the cast is amazing , but how in hell did Johnny Depp not get an Oscar for his performance in this incredible film is beyond me.
"Pretty Women" is an unhindered Love Letter to the bashful tone of "Green Finch and Linnet Bird"; With Johanna signing as she sits in the window doing embroidery on a cloudy day much like a sublime Chardin painting.
Something I noticed in this song. You can see the moment that Sweeney Todd goes from sympathetic anti-hero seeking revenge to omnicidal maniac. You see the instant change in his eyes the moment that he starts whistling at 1:09 . That was truly stellar acting by both Johnny Depp and Alan Rickman. This scene was just extraordinary. I love it!
@@henryisthere There is a line. He's been out for blood from the beginning. But he only wanted Turpin and Bamford. At Epiphany, he loses the all sanity and becomes a remorseless maniac.
The way he yells “YES” when the tension is really building at the end is so good. It adds a little bite to the moment and accents the music getting really tense
Jesus who is the one and only true God and Creator came to earth 2000+ years ago to go to the cross to pay our sin debt in full. His sacrifice was sufficient to pay the penalty for the sins of the world (1 John 2:2). A created being could not pay the infinite penalty required for sin against an infinite God. Only God could pay such an infinite penalty. Only God could take on the sins of the world (2 Corinthians 5:21), die, and be resurrected, proving His victory over sin and death and that true and only God is JESUS! And He did all that because He loves us and wants to save us and have a relationship with us. JESUS is the only way to Heaven, only He can save us from sin and from hell ( Luke 5:32, John 14, Romans 6:23). Jesus is waiting for you to come to Him, He won't cast you away from Himself if you come to Him. He calls us all to repentance, He loves us and wants to save us. believe and have faith in God then the Holy Spirit will come in and lead you to repent of your sins and God will forgive you of your sins and cleanse you by the blood of Jesus and you'll get born again by His Holy Spirit and have His salvation, you will become a new creation (John 3:3-19). God bless
This duet is hands down, the best thing to ever happen on screen!! It’s like you have Alan Rickman AND Johnny Depp (two of the best actors of all time) together singing in Sweeney Todd! Everything about it is _iconic_ . 💕💖
michael dorsey Yeah the minute Alan started singing, he sounded so much like Frollo. He should’ve been Frollo in a live action musical of Hunchback of Norte Dame.
My most favorite part is when both Rickman and Depp break out in song singing Pretty Woman actually a beautiful song , the cast is wonderful , the actors all of them wonderful but my question-- is there anything Johnny Depp can’t do? Depp is , as always phenomenal --
I have already left a comment , have just 1 more comment how is it that Johnny Depp didn’t get an Oscar for this highly complicated, English , demented barber for Sweeney Todd ?????
All these comments "I see Snape and Captain Jack..." You know, who I see? I see two incredible male actors singing together and I'm just sitting here and cry, because one of them is gone.
@@red4679 Oh, gosh I totally forgot about that comment. XD I actually think it's really funny, just imagine them in costume - Jack Sparrow dancing around Snape and trying to shave something that isn't there. I must have been in a bad mood when I wrote that, but idk lol
2:16 These few seconds are the most brilliant and suspenseful part of the entire movie. We all know that Sweeney is out to kill The Judge, and now his enemy sits before him in the chair, rather defenseless. Before this, Sweeney starts singing somewhat of a reprise to the song My Friends, and begins to sharpen the blade. Now, as we watch Sweeney raise his blade and arm, we await the slashing of The Judge's throat. However, this part never comes. Instead, Sweeney gently glides over the shaving cream, and continues to sing Pretty Women to The Judge. It's just so brilliant and so bone chilling that you realize that you had been holding your breath ever since you saw Sweeney raise the blade.
Wingo's Meme Abyss the tragedy is that if Anthony had not barged in then Todd would have killed Turpin meaning Lucy, Todd, Mrs. Lovett, and many others would not have died.
Probably my favourite song in the whole film. Just the whole idea of this song. From my perspective I see a broken man singing with the man responsible for his life falling apart, but both singing about the same woman. Lucy. Turpin, having the chance to be killed by Sweeney at any moment, remains oblivious to Sweeney's true identity and doesn't realise both are singing about the same woman. Just with every song you can go so deep into the film and what they're thinking while singing. Really amazes me.
I'm not sure which one is my favorite either this or Not While I'm Around.... The third-place easily goes to Worst Pies in London....ok, and fourth place goes to By the Beautiful Sea.
Yeah this has to be my favorite song in the film as well. Not only that, but honestly I think this is the best version of this song that has ever come out.
This movie is a true masterpiece. Starring with some of the most iconic actors Johnny Depp,Helena Bonham Carter and Allan Rickman. The perfect trio. All so talented and majestic.
Grindelwald trying to kill Snape but Young Grindelwald prevented it. Bellatrix is downstairs baking pies. While Petigrew is out there collecting taxes.
This is such a gorgeous song. They did a great job performing this song. Alan's voice is such a gorgeous baritone and Johnny's is such a pure tenor. The melody and the harmonies are just luscious. You can tell they worked on this piece on their own a great deal. I wish Alan Rickman was still alive and these two could do more work together. I would have loved to see Alan Rickman and David Tennant do some work together.
@@cashthecurator666 Turpin sentenced a child to death by hanging after only his second offense. Whatever he did, I'm sure it didn't warrant hanging a child who probably only did anything wrong out of impoverished conditions.
I know that the original character of Sweeney Todd is supposed to be a baritone or something else deep, but I honestly like the contrast here between his voice and the judge's.
So he had a damn good idea he took her daughter and instead of killing the guy then and there he waited all that time to do the job n didn't even bother to get the kid back. My only problem is you going to slit his throat right there. Proving he's a psycho 1st and a screwed over human 2nd
It's weird how stories evolve over time, Sweeney Todd was originally written as an outright villain, a barber who murdered his patrons and sold them for meat in Mrs Lovett's pies. It wasn't until the 1970's that the character was re-imagined as an anti-hero who had a reason for his crimes. Between the 70's and now, aided by Tim Burton's movie, he evolved into something more like a folk hero. That's a complete character reversal, he went from a villain we were meant to despise and revile, to a sympathetic character we sympathise with and regard as a hero of folk legend. It's weird how these things change. Frankly, I find the character more compelling as a sympathetic hero,
We realize that in the end though he really isn't a hero. He didn't even recognize his own wife. Like all the men in the play, he's just obsessed with pretty women. And he took revenge on the man who took her away from him.
That is why this song and scene is a masterpiece in Sweeny Todd. Johnny Deep freaking awesome!!! And Alan Rickman totally amazing. And he may now rest in peace.
Nikola Mlynaříková, "Harry Potter fan fiction" i love that idea. sounds very plausible when it comes to the movie makers. as to the story itself, taking into account that Sweeney Todd appeared in Penny Dreadful magazines in the late 19th century, the Stephen Sondheim musical appeared in 1979, it could well be that the harry Potter series was written by a fan of Sweeney Todd. I have no proof, mind you, but the HP stories do get pretty dark towards the end (Avada Kadevra, Sectumsempra, etc)
Benjamin Barker was a good man and Sweeney became a victimizer due to tragic flaw of being decieved by Bonhams character, and initially betrayed by Snapes character. Sweeney was deranged victim turned victimizer. Ben Barker is the lost hero...
As much as I like his performance I think the movie misses the character a bit. The reason a lot of people like depp more is because he has a sort of suave to him that no other performer brought to the role. I kinda like the Broadway sweeneys better because (in my opinion) his character is supposed to be almost repulsive at least originally. Nothing against the movie but they changed things that I sorta have a love hate relationship with
Wade Wilson I absolutely agree, I've seen the broadway version of Sweeney Todd and... no thank you. Johnny Depp sang way better in the movie than everyone else who ever played Sweeney Todd combined.
This is probably Tim Burton's most beautiful movie when it comes to gothic stories. With Edward Scissorhands, there was still humor with the beautiful story. Sweeney Todd has no humor and seems to rely on the tragedy of Todd's character. The music is either melancholy with violins playing/a sweet harp/flutes or angry with drums and ominous French horns. I do love how they take care of making the music beautiful which in turn makes the film feel more elegant despite the general tone of it.
Indeed. What do you mean no humor? I was smirking half of the movie and loudly exhaled though my nose at least ten times with scenes like the roach on the table, the itchy wig on the kid, how he directed his own wife to act out the Mrs Lovett admitting to not using cats in her pies because "them pussycats is quick" scene, etc. And that's just the originals. When we also add the jokes from the source material... It turns hilarious. This is a dark comedy, but a comedy none the less. Like most of the best Burton movies are.
@@LongandWeirdName I feel like since the movie is about a man who is set on revenge, it's a serious movie because of Todd's pain. It's the reason behind the whole movie..he thinks the love of his life is dead, he can't find his daughter, he's angry at the man who took away the life he had. Todd doesn't smile unless it's to use someone for his benefit or to kill them. He's a character that embodies pain and vengeance..and since he is the main character, there's not much comedy as I think people believe.
I love Sweeney Todd so much it must be my favourite musical and movie. I love Tim Burton I love Johnny Depp and I love Helena Bonham Carter I love this movie soooo much
+adrian graf You need to see more Alan Rickman films. Professor as in Professor Snape. His earning 20% is paying homage to his character Hans Gruber from Die Hard.
In high school choir class, my music teacher played this movie scene. Wanted to show how bass and tenor can sing together. Made me appreciate this movie more lol
This is the first time I've forced myself to watch Alan Rickman since his death. Alan Rickman had such an impact on my life and I am beside myself with sadness. Rest In Peace you beautiful man.
+MyHeartisLostinMusic I don't know but, it's super great! For once, he isn't playing the antagonist or the antihero! He's wonderful! I'll give you a link to some scenes though, if I can find them!
Grace Batterson Well, thank you very much :) Huge disadvantage of the country I'm living in: Nobody knows Alan Rickman but everyone knows Snape... annying, though^^
People like to shit on this movie a lot in comparison to the Broadway version but Allan Rickman's voice is fucking magical. So every other Sweeney Todd thing out there gets a -1 point for not having Rickman in it.
+The Dee strange isn't it, leaving a comment like that then a month later that person dies :( I just watched Love Actually over New Year. And last week I watched Extras and was laughing at the David Bowie episode then days later, he dies :'(
+The Dee I quite enjoyed the movie. This song in particular is chilling because it's essentially a "love song" but one sung by two of the darkest characters in the film.
You want to talk about overdone? Compare Phantom of the Opera's overture between the play and the movie :P Movie: Auctioner: Perhaps we can... frighten away the ghost... of so many years ago... with a little illuminaton. Gentlemen? *DUUUUUN DUN DUN DUN DUN DUNNNNN* Play: Auctioner: Perhaps we can frIGHTEN THE GHOST! OF SO MANY YEARS AGO!!! WITH A LITTLE!!!!!!

Johnny Depp is one of those actors where in one second his a pirate dancing with a jar of dirt, in the next he's a Native American jumping across moving trains, and in THE NEXT he's singing a song about killing you with a razor. He's a really talented actor.
Shaving will never be quite the same =*( Rest in peace, Alan Rickman. I never had the pleasure of being in your company, but I must thank you for portraying a character such as Severus Snape by brilliantly capturing such an intricate, personally relatable character. Like the other great talents who we've lost this week, you were taken far too soon.

@ grod coyote thank you for the lyrics which are beautiful but then it was Stephen Sondheim’s creation. Such an Oscar worthy performance by all but more so ,Johnny Depp who brought Todd to life.

3:07 I like how Johnny Depp wipes off the razor foam in tune with how Alan Rickman is singing “glancing”, it’s absolute perfection - 11/10.
Probably my favourite song in the whole film. Just the whole idea of this song. From my perspective I see a broken man singing with the man responsible for his life falling apart, but both singing about the same woman. Lucy. Turpin, having the chance to be killed by Sweeney at any moment, remains oblivious to Sweeney's true identity and doesn't realise both are singing about the same woman.
Just with every song you can go so deep into the film and what they're thinking while singing. Really amazes me.
Turpin was singing for Todd's daughter Johanna not for Lucy
@@RR-mh5gj correct and in my interpretation too Turpin is singing about his victims since he saw women as property

Yeah this has to be my favorite song in the film as well. Not only that, but honestly I think this is the best version of this song that has ever come out.
Jonny depps voice is just so gorgeous 😍
ikr
Absolutely! :) ❤
😄😄😄😄😄
oh yes😍
It seriously has me wonder why in the world Victor didn't get a song in Corpse Bride since Johnny sings this well!
This movie is a true masterpiece. Starring with some of the most iconic actors Johnny Depp,Helena Bonham Carter and Allan Rickman. The perfect trio. All so talented and majestic.
and timothy spall
And Sacha Baron Cohen.
Grindelwald trying to kill Snape but Young Grindelwald prevented it. Bellatrix is downstairs baking pies. While Petigrew is out there collecting taxes.
What more can bus harry Potter fans want
Each time he put the razor to the judge's throat I jumped a little from my seat
same, lol
Same here
r za Me and my mom watched it, she said it was gross, i was laughing i did the same with final destination
Same! The tension in this scene is brilliant!
I started laughing hysterically
Is it weird that I can imagine Sweeney smelling really nice he just looks like he would
I think the exact same thing !!
I think he'd smell like blood
I think he'd smell like cherry or strawberry
Turpin would smell musky, I reckon!
i like to think he uses blood as moisturizer and that's why his skin is so nice looking and he'd probably smell like blood
I LOVE the way Johnny just stares into Alan’s soul while he sings to him
1:04 I can just imagine Snape skipping merrily through Hogwarts to the horror of Slytherin students humming this xD
LOL🤣🤣🤣🤣 and Slytherin students be like: UMM is Professor Snape ok??
@@anushkaauddy2126 like: wtf is he...humming? WHAT IS GOING ON HERE IM GOING TO RUN NOW
I guess Flitwick went a little crazy with a Cheering Charm that day.
Lolll im laughing

He's not to bad ether as far as musicals go
That's cause enough for a Harry Potter musical.
Evil Kitten gorgeous isn’t is?

This is such a gorgeous song. They did a great job performing this song. Alan's voice is such a gorgeous baritone and Johnny's is such a pure tenor. The melody and the harmonies are just luscious. You can tell they worked on this piece on their own a great deal. I wish Alan Rickman was still alive and these two could do more work together. I would have loved to see Alan Rickman and David Tennant do some work together.
At the end, Grindelwald looks on in horror as his younger self enters his shop.
Looper 2
The second half of this song is so beautiful... To think enemies can harmonize so captivatingly.
It's part of the tragedy, sadly
Nothings more beautiful then hearing two murderous vultures sing a duet about pretty women.
well Johnny's character motivations actually makes sense unlike Alan's
Well, Turpin was more perverted than murderous.
@@cashthecurator666 Turpin sentenced a child to death by hanging after only his second offense. Whatever he did, I'm sure it didn't warrant hanging a child who probably only did anything wrong out of impoverished conditions.
I love their voices so much! I am in love with the way Johnny sounds when he sings the word "dancing" at 2:26
This entire scene Sweeny had him right there but kept getting interrupted and it had me on edge
I know that the original character of Sweeney Todd is supposed to be a baritone or something else deep, but I honestly like the contrast here between his voice and the judge's.
bruh
Depp is a tenor but he did really well in this movie.
You know Sweeney, you could have finished his shave before you tried to kill him.
I thought he had class.
I thought that even though his victims souls weren't saved,
They'd greet their maker impeccably shaved.
But then the song would of finished before the shave did.
I think he only wanted to shave the area that was to be cut.
So he had a damn good idea he took her daughter and instead of killing the guy then and there he waited all that time to do the job n didn't even bother to get the kid back. My only problem is you going to slit his throat right there. Proving he's a psycho 1st and a screwed over human 2nd
I feel this is the most beautiful male duet piece of all time. Alan Rickman and Johnny Depp - beyond brilliant. They made magic.
The harmony when they sing "Proof of Heaven" is just immaculate!
His death hit me more than any celebrities death ever did. I'm going to miss him. Go Professor, to that great Room of Requirement in the sky.
4:08
Judge: How dare you interrupt in this wonderful shave?
no Todd: How dare you interrupt my closest shave.
Would you excuse us? We're singing about perfectly normal things women do that give us hard-ons.
I hear “In a marry mood today Mr. Potter” every time on accident
Rickman and Depp's voices work so well together in this song it's ridiculous.
Dang these guys should've done more songs! Depp's voice is nice but Rickman's voice is just so DIFFERENT it's magical
becusse he came from hogwarts that why he magic smyly winking face
@@stanleyschlosser7495 jus slithered his way on through lol
@@thrizzle4105 lol i am a meme now or someting
It's weird how stories evolve over time, Sweeney Todd was originally written as an outright villain, a barber who murdered his patrons and sold them for meat in Mrs Lovett's pies. It wasn't until the 1970's that the character was re-imagined as an anti-hero who had a reason for his crimes. Between the 70's and now, aided by Tim Burton's movie, he evolved into something more like a folk hero. That's a complete character reversal, he went from a villain we were meant to despise and revile, to a sympathetic character we sympathise with and regard as a hero of folk legend. It's weird how these things change. Frankly, I find the character more compelling as a sympathetic hero,
agreed but he did kill random people in his shop. I wouldn't necessarily call him a hero. He only let one man go. thank god his family was there.
O wo
We realize that in the end though he really isn't a hero. He didn't even recognize his own wife. Like all the men in the play, he's just obsessed with pretty women. And he took revenge on the man who took her away from him.
If anything, I would call him a corrupted vigilante in this movie.
Gavin Easter
Not sure if cool /b/ro or reddit-tard.
That is why this song and scene is a masterpiece in Sweeny Todd. Johnny Deep freaking awesome!!! And Alan Rickman totally amazing. And he may now rest in peace.
I still love this movie. 2019 👏

@@patrickoneillmcfinnigan7664 oh I didn't know that
Nikola Mlynaříková, "Harry Potter fan fiction" i love that idea. sounds very plausible when it comes to the movie makers.
as to the story itself, taking into account that Sweeney Todd appeared in Penny Dreadful magazines in the late 19th century, the Stephen Sondheim musical appeared in 1979, it could well be that the harry Potter series was written by a fan of Sweeney Todd. I have no proof, mind you, but the HP stories do get pretty dark towards the end (Avada Kadevra, Sectumsempra, etc)
I miss Alan
Lauren Jones me too
Always
Oh yeah always
Me too #always
10 points from Gryffindor for trying to slit my throat
Grindelwald attended Illvermorny not hogwarts. Sorry 😅
Johnny Depp deserved an oscar for this role. He did amazing as always
Without the malicious intent of Sweeny he is a very passionate man
*Note that I said passionate not necessarily good*
Passion is the gasoline that is poured on the fire of malicious intent.
I don't condemn it but this is the reality.
Ok mrs Lovett 🤣🤣
Benjamin Barker was a good man and Sweeney became a victimizer due to tragic flaw of being decieved by Bonhams character, and initially betrayed by Snapes character. Sweeney was deranged victim turned victimizer. Ben Barker is the lost hero...
Am I the only one who likes johnny depp a lot more than the original broadway singer?
As much as I like his performance I think the movie misses the character a bit.
The reason a lot of people like depp more is because he has a sort of suave to him that no other performer brought to the role.
I kinda like the Broadway sweeneys better because (in my opinion) his character is supposed to be almost repulsive at least originally.
Nothing against the movie but they changed things that I sorta have a love hate relationship with
nope, i think so too you're not alone
can someone gives me a link to broadway version here on yt?
Wade Wilson I absolutely agree, I've seen the broadway version of Sweeney Todd and... no thank you. Johnny Depp sang way better in the movie than everyone else who ever played Sweeney Todd combined.
Nope same
After this I was really hoping Alan Rickman could of done more musicals. Such a beautiful voice! RIP Alan
This is probably Tim Burton's most beautiful movie when it comes to gothic stories.
With Edward Scissorhands, there was still humor with the beautiful story. Sweeney Todd has no humor and seems to rely on the tragedy of Todd's character. The music is either melancholy with violins playing/a sweet harp/flutes or angry with drums and ominous French horns. I do love how they take care of making the music beautiful which in turn makes the film feel more elegant despite the general tone of it.
Are you serious? Sweeney Todd has a lot of dark humor.
Indeed. What do you mean no humor? I was smirking half of the movie and loudly exhaled though my nose at least ten times with scenes like the roach on the table, the itchy wig on the kid, how he directed his own wife to act out the Mrs Lovett admitting to not using cats in her pies because "them pussycats is quick" scene, etc. And that's just the originals. When we also add the jokes from the source material... It turns hilarious. This is a dark comedy, but a comedy none the less. Like most of the best Burton movies are.
@@LongandWeirdName I feel like since the movie is about a man who is set on revenge, it's a serious movie because of Todd's pain. It's the reason behind the whole movie..he thinks the love of his life is dead, he can't find his daughter, he's angry at the man who took away the life he had.
Todd doesn't smile unless it's to use someone for his benefit or to kill them. He's a character that embodies pain and vengeance..and since he is the main character, there's not much comedy as I think people believe.
Burton can't really claim credit for the music and story here, it was a play first. His vision of it is immaculately executed though I will say that
I love Sweeney Todd so much it must be my favourite musical and movie. I love Tim Burton I love Johnny Depp and I love Helena Bonham Carter I love this movie soooo much

Can't stop crying.

He doesn't like to be Snape he is a sensitive guy 🧖🏼♀️😘
Alan Rickman and Johnny Depp singing together is absolutely everything.
Alan rickman johnny depp phenomenonal
Alan Rickman had such a charming voice. It's sad we''ll never hear it again.
I'm still denying Alan's death, he was so talented
Sameee
I loved SWEENY TODD, JOHNNY WAS FANTASTIC!!!! I loved his singing!!!!!!
They couldn’t have found more talented men
RIP Alan Rickman (1946-2016).
This is the first time I've forced myself to watch Alan Rickman since his death. Alan Rickman had such an impact on my life and I am beside myself with sadness. Rest In Peace you beautiful man.
Miranda Robbins what impact???
HAPPY 78TH (HEAVENLY) BIRTHDAY, ALAN RICKMAN!!! With his rich baritone voice, I still maintain that he would KILLED "The Judge's Song (Mea Culpa)".
One of the most beautiful, epic moments of cinematic history. EVER
I'd do anything Alan Rickman tells me to do, just because of that voice of his
And another comment that describes my life^^
You are the future! Lol, I know what you mean! I love him, he's great! He was in a movie adaption of sense and sensibility and he was so amazing!
Grace Batterson he was? You know if I can watch it somewhere? :)

I don't know but, it's super great! For once, he isn't playing the antagonist or the antihero! He's wonderful! I'll give you a link to some scenes though, if I can find them!
Grace Batterson
Well, thank you very much :) Huge disadvantage of the country I'm living in: Nobody knows Alan Rickman but everyone knows Snape... annying, though^^
People like to shit on this movie a lot in comparison to the Broadway version but Allan Rickman's voice is fucking magical.
So every other Sweeney Todd thing out there gets a -1 point for not having Rickman in it.
+The Dee Rest In Peace Mr. Rickman.
I had to come back here and comment. I simply can't believe it.
+The Dee strange isn't it, leaving a comment like that then a month later that person dies :( I just watched Love Actually over New Year. And last week I watched Extras and was laughing at the David Bowie episode then days later, he dies :'(
+The Dee I quite enjoyed the movie. This song in particular is chilling because it's essentially a "love song" but one sung by two of the darkest characters in the film.
+The Dee I adore the way both sang this song. It is sensitive and not overbearing. On stage gusto is needed, yes, but it often seems overdone.
You want to talk about overdone? Compare Phantom of the Opera's overture between the play and the movie :P

Dude, chill. Did you forget your meds again?
Johnny Depp is one of those actors where in one second his a pirate dancing with a jar of dirt, in the next he's a Native American jumping across moving trains, and in THE NEXT he's singing a song about killing you with a razor. He's a really talented actor.
The movie version has the timing down immaculately perfect! Something that is rare in live performance.
Shaving will never be quite the same =*(
Rest in peace, Alan Rickman. I never had the pleasure of being in your company, but I must thank you for portraying a character such as Severus Snape by brilliantly capturing such an intricate, personally relatable character. Like the other great talents who we've lost this week, you were taken far too soon.
You just get chills from hearing Depp sing- he's so good!
