Review of The Libertine (2004) by Kenneth Turan for Los Angeles Times — 28 Apr 2005
A trying experience. As we watch Rochester fall apart in spectacular fashion, it's clear that a major lure for the venturesome Depp was the chance to play a grotesque, to become a pestilent physical wreck with an artificial silver nose.
There's more in that role for the actor, however, than there is for us.
