Johnny Depp - From Hell/ Edward Scissorhands/ Before Night Falls Movie

Three films. From Hell - On the chilly morning of August 31st 1888, the body of a woman was found on the pavement of Buck's Row in Whitechapel, London. Her name was Mary Ann Nicholls. Two weeks later another girl was found and by the end of September Jack the Ripper was known all over England. Based on the novel by Alan Moore, this interpretation focuses on the story through the eyes of Mary Kelly and her unfortunate circle of friends. Is the Ripper targeting them with a purpose and if so, for what reason? Johnny Depp stars as Inspector Abberline who tries to unmask the identity of the Ripper before any more girls are killed. Edward Scissorhands - When she discovers a strange young man with only scissors for hands living alone in a decaying gothic castle, a kindly Avon lady takes him home to pastel-toned suburbia where his talents for hairstyling, shrub-trimming and poodle-clipping make him the toast of the town. A wonderful adult fairytale with a stunning performance from Depp as the wistful man child. Oscar-nominated for its superb makeup effects. Before Night Falls - A look at the life of the brilliant Cuban author Reinaldo Arenas, from his poverty-stricken childhood to his prosecution, torture and exile from Fidel Castro's Cuba. A vivid portrait of a remarkably talented and responsive man and a piercing account of political, artistic and sexual repression.
