Lauren's Tidbits

Johnny Depp and pirates like peas and carrots. Besides being in the Pirates of Caribbean franchise. He starred in Finding Neverland about J.M Barrie writing Peter Pan. Of course there's Captain Hook but he also plays pirates with the four boys he befriends in the movie. The movie is excellent but don't look into their lives beyond the movie. Mr. Barrie, plus I think two of the boys, end up committing suicide. How depressing. Anyway, my tidbit is that not one but two other actors from Pirates of the Caribbean star with Johnny Depp in Finding Neverland, Mackenzie Crook and Angus Barnett. What great names. Mackenzie plays Ragetti in Pirates, the humorous lunk who always losing his eye and Mr. Jaspers in Neverland, the usher trying desperately to answer Mr. Barrie's questions about whether the audience likes his plays. Angus plays Mullroy in Pirates the portly British officer who first meets Jack Sparrow trying to commandeer a ship and doesn't believe there is a actual Black Pearl and Mr. Reilly in Neverland, the actor who ends up playing Nana the dog in Peter Pan.
