From the Publisher:
The star of some of the most original American films in recent history, Johnny Depp is also one of Hollywood’s most versatile and enigmatic stars.

In Johnny Depp: A Kind of Illusion, film journalist Denis Meikle looks at the effects that Depp’s rising critical and commercial stature may have on the direction of his career, including his forthcoming films—Rum Diary, Diving Bell, Butterfly, and Pirates of the Caribbean 2. Denis Meikle is the author of A History of Horrors, Jack the Ripper: The Murders and the Movies, and Vincent Price: The Art of Fear.
