I'm having a bit of Johnny withdrawal. I'm so addicted to this beautiful man! LOL! I didn't used to be so addicted but POTC re-kindled my love for him. Now I just want to watch the new Johnny movies.
Johnny seems to have a dark Gothic side to him. He likes to act in Tim Burton movies to play out that side of him - the pale face, the anti-hero type, the loner on the edge. In fact, in a bio TV prog on E! tv, he did mention that he was a romantic as he watched Wuthering Heights 10 times. This really sealed the deal for me 'cos I am a WH maniac and love Goth stuff.
But despite the darkness of his characters, they are not 100% flat out bad. He plays them with sympathy and I don't hate them totally. His characters are flawed but their imperfections make them human and identifiable.
