Johnny Depp A Modern Rebel

Two things have remained constant in Pirates of the Caribbean star Johnny Depp's twenty years on screen: his taste for quirky, edgy roles and his lusciously smouldering good looks. Now in his forties, happily settled in France with his longtime love Vanessa Paradis, Depp would seem to have it all, yet his success is hard won. Johnny Depp: A Modern Rebel describes a complex, tortured young man whose troubled childhood and rebellious, drug-infused adolescence ill-prepared him for the life of a celebrity heartthrob. Replete with details of his bad boy antics, romantic romps, and a string of volatile relationships, including his affairs with Winona Ryder, and supermodel Kate Moss. The book also provides a serious analysis of Depp's career, and the fiercely independent, artistically adventurous roles with which he has chosen to define himself both as an actor and a man.
