The Man Who Cried

Last night we viewed The Man Who Cried on our own home theatre.

Christina Ricci is in the starring role, along with Johnny Depp. Also playing a major part is Cate Blanchett. We've enjoyed Cate in numerous roles and remember when Christina Ricci and Johhny Depp played opposite one another in Legend of Sleepy Hollow.



Johnny Depp has had a number of outstanding roles. The Man Who Cried is not one of our favorites but still it was worth watching. It is a tale of a very young Russian Jewish girl who finds herself suddenly without family when her father departs to find a better life for them in America and then her grandmother is killed. She is sent to England where she grows into a young woman and departs for Paris, where she lands on the eve of WWII. It is there she meets Johhny Depp who plays Cesar, leader of a small band of gypsies.

I'm not going to tell you what happens to our heroine in the end. Does she find true love with Cesar? Will she ever be reunited with her father? Let me know how you like the video.
