Sweeney Todd

Sweeney Todd

It's a movie adopted from the musical "Sweenet Todd". However, the leading actor is never as handsome as the one in the movie.


Benjamin Barker is a skilled barber,who has a beautiful wife and perfect family, is wrong charged and sentenced to jail by a bad judge who lusts Todd's beautiful wife, Lucy. After he retuen to London, he uses Sweeney Todd to hide his true identity and tries to take revenge.


At his old Fleet Street lodgings above Mrs. Nellie Lovett's pie shop, he discovers that Lucy, having been raped by Turpin, has poisoned herself, and his teenage daughter Joanana is now Turpin's house, and like her mother before her, is the object of his unwanted affections. Todd vows revenge, reopening his barber shop in the upstairs flat.

Mrs. Lovett
She sells the worst meat pie in London and I do not know why she still can survive, however, Todd cannot suceed without her is true.
In this film, Mrs. lovett has so many fantastic dreams with Todd and the photo above is one of the most interesting picture of all. She's dreaming that after the revenge is done, they can lead a happy life forever.
And this is the leading actor Johnny Depp who is my favorite actor in the Hollywood. This film is his first time to sing all by himself in the movie but I think he did a great job.
Link to the "A little priest", one of my favorite song.
