A Golden Night for Beloved Johnny

Johnny Depp’s amazing talent has finally been recognized after 8 nominations as he won his first Golden Globe for his magnificent portrayal of the Demon Barber of Fleet Street in Tim Burton’s “Sweeny Todd.” Depp won in the “best actor in a musical or comedy” category as the film also took home top honors as “Best Motion Picture - Musical or Comedy.”

I have loved Johnny Depp for so long and have sadly sat and watched his 7 previous snubs and all I can say now is that it is about time! He really should have been honored for his brilliant interpretation of the infamous Captain Jack Sparrow in the Pirates trilogy; without Depp, the films would have flopped.

Last night’s Golden Globe’s were announced Press Conference style due to the writers strike which is a shame because I would have loved to have seen him personally honored. My fingers will remain crossed for the upcoming Oscar nominations that will be announced on January 22. Here’s to hoping for another win!
