Just a thought for a new thread. Johnny worked with both animlas & children. Looking at his films he has often worked with children wonder if anyone knows his comments on either or both? We all know he had great respect for the ability of kids in FN & sure we have all seen the outtake with the dog but any thing else?

Q: How was it working with the kids in Wonka?JD: Freddie [Highmore] is pretty impressive. The first thing that struck me about Freddie when I met him on "Finding Neverland" was his eyes. It wasn't just because they're these piercing beautiful blue eyes, but there's a purity in Freddie that's astonishing. It's mesmerizing and it is like he's incapable of lying or telling a lie. Then you get to work with him and you see what his abilities are as an actor, which are endless. Beyond all of the great things that Freddie is, he wants to play football. He goes on vacations with his family and he plays games and he's just a really normal, very well grounded kid. Q: How did the kids in the film react to you?JD: They were great about it. So for about the first 10 days, you get these kinds of looks [demonstrates a facial expression] and they sort of check each other out. They weren't quite sure how to deal with it and but then they caught on and started to enjoy it. I remember one scene where I was speaking jive to little Jordan, who played Mike TV and I had this idea that you should speak jive so I came up with thing that "It's in the fridge Daddy-O" and we were doing a rehearsal and I walked up to him and put my hand on him and said "Slide me some skin Daddy-O" and he tilted in a backwards angle looking at me saying 'That's not in the script." It killed me [laughs]. I just burst into hysterical laughter. (not much on FN, but it's still a little on tha' and Johnny working w/ the kiddies) From: www.timessquare.com/movies/depp/index.html
