First of all, Tim Burton helms extraordinarily divine. Sounds silly, still, Burton captures a visual story like no other director; he is dark yet light and moves all emotions.
Add Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham-Carter singing fabulously in a dark musical, we have Burton’s style, “Sweeney Todd.”
I’ll be jumping over the audience seats saying “Pinch me I am dreaming!”
If you saw Bonham-Carter in “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix,” then you know you are in for a scrumptious treat.
I have to digress: “Potter” screen time wasn’t much for Bonham-Carter, yet she played Bellatrix wildly insane — what fun! I can’t wait to see her in “Half-Blood Prince” and “Deathly Hallows.”
Depp can eat ‘em up too. He is a true performer, master of the camera.
Bring your appetites. “Sweeney Todd” opens December 21st — complete holiday meal.
