Johnny Depp on Hunter S. Thompson

[@hlf_coder6272]

@@reginald8623 Ya it’s in Woody Creek which is right outside Aspen. When I lived in Vail, Hunter was still alive so I went to the tavern a few times in hope of seeing him, but never did unfortunately. Hunter actually ran for sherif there in the 70s and only lost by a few votes. It’s a funny story

Yeah that’s a heck of a gesture. When people crap of Johnny they need to also consider that act.

[@joeldavis5815]

@@hlf_coder6272 The Woody Creek Tavern. I used to have to make deliveries to that place. I used to hate having to go there. Surprisingly, the people that worked at and patroned that place were even more snooty and pretentious than the people at most of the places up in Aspen if you can actually believe it. Maybe it wasn't always like that. This was years after Hunter's death.

[@sunlion8866]

@Nedd Flanders Johnny Depp was present at Hunter's private funeral, along with Bill Murray, Jack Nicholson, Sean Penn, Senators John Kerry and George McGovern. The private ceremony was held at Hunter S. Thompson's home in Woody Creek, Colorado. It's called honoring a friend, something you obviously don't understand.

[@NxDoyle]

There's a really important dynamic that needs to exist in order for an interview to work well. Famous TV interviewers often say that the key is listening, but it's more than that. The interviewee has to be willing to talk in the first place, which is why TV interviews so often seem clunky. Usually the guest is there purely because they are promoting a product, often after weeks of similar appearances and junkets. But in a situation like this, you know that Lawrence has an immediate head start because they are there to talk and listen and learn and enjoy. They have time and inclination to let it unfold.

[@chadporter305]

I found that to not be the case , it's called conversing. He talked over him once only at the beginning about being at the lodge with Stephen Hawking , that's it.

[@cowboysfan782008]

A lot of armchair quarterbacks ripping on Johnny here but overall I think he deserves some credit. If you know anything about him his family moved something like 15 times when he was a kid, and I don't think his dad was ever much of a part in his life, which is tough when you are a boy. He comes out to Hollywood in the very early 80s with his band and meets Nick Cage (Who's real name is Nick Coppola), who gets him into acting. Has a part in Nightmare On Elm Street in 84' then Platoon in 86' then hits it huge with 21 Jump Street then to the top from there. What I'm getting at is for a guy with humble beginnings he's an awesome A list actor who was superb in every role I've ever seen him in, and he's also true to his beliefs and turned down stuff that didn't have substance. He's also damn likable, and not full of himself and that is why Hunter, Brando, and others who normally didn't get close to many ppl liked Johnny Depp. Too many ppl are too quick to judge!

I like how when talking about Hunter is Anxiety is not really there, where as if he speaks about himself it very much is, fantastic dude, fucking bat shit insane to some degree but I think Robin williams had it right saying "You're only given a little spark of madness. You mustn't lose it." Depp aint lost his, he puts it into the characters he plays and the way he is when out of highly social situations, this guy is without a doubt one of the better actors there has ever been. (was tempted to make a Pirates reference but opted not to), also for the record Anxiety sucks, there is a reason I spend most of my days avoiding people where possible.

I simply avoid people be cuz mosr of them really really sux and are uncool

[@holographic_red]

this is great, needs more views

[@Fortyball]

And if you look to your left you will see Hunter giving Johnny lessons in the prosody, dynamics and delivery of Gonzo.

[@DaffyAF]

Hope Johnny recovers from all the bullcrap he's been dealing with

[@hrs1414]

As great as this interview is, I cant get passed just how badly Depp wants to speak with an English accent. Every other word you can see the Jack Sparrow coming out lmfaoo

[@ollie2244]

Jack Sparrow's supposed to be English?

[@DissidentThoughts]

@@ollie2244 yes he based the accent off Keith Richard's

[@thephantomraspberryblower2675]

I'm English, he sounds like a yank to me.

past

[@leec6424]

You are so uneducated. I'm 52 and I've lived in London for 12 years and also Miami for 8 years and Brisbane for 5 years and Johannesburg for 3 so my accent is all over the place and I was born in Leeds.

[@notgenius]

4:01 man in the middle is clearly not amused

[@briansullivan8610]

Johnny Depp. Always in character

[@kgoodridge1]

Kind of frightening, don't you think?

[@willpetersan3528]

Hunter: did we just become best friends. Johnny: yup. Hunter: wanna do karate in the basement?

[@hippa2dahoppa2]

DERRICK FERREAL!! THERE YOU FUCKING HAPPY! lol

[@takersdfan]

Johnny is a legend he makes me laugh
