Story: |
Johnny Depp and Tim Burton join forces again in a big-screen adaptation
of Stephen Sondheim's award-winning musical thriller "Sweeney Todd." Depp
stars in the title role as a man unjustly sent to prison who vows revenge,
not only for that cruel punishment, but for the devastating consequences of
what happened to his wife and daughter. When he returns to reopen his barber
shop, Sweeney Todd becomes the Demon Barber of Fleet Street who "shaved the
heads of gentlemen who never thereafter were heard from again." Joining Depp
is Helena Bonham Carter as Mrs. Lovett, Sweeney's amorous accomplice, who
creates diabolical meat pies. The cast also includes Alan Rickman, who
portrays the evil Judge Turpin, who sends Sweeney to prison and Timothy
Spall as the Judge's wicked associate Beadle Bamford and Sacha Baron Cohen
is a rival barber, the flamboyant Signor Adolfo Pirelli.
