Minamata - Johnny Depp, Andrew Levitas & Hiroyuki Sanada on their thrilling new film

Фильм және анимация

Johnny Depp, director Andrew Levitas and Hiroyuki Sanada are interviewed for Minamata, which stars Johnny Depp as celebrated war photographer W. Eugene Smith, alongside Minami, Hiroyuki Sanada, Ryo Kase, Jun Kunimura, Bill Nighy and Katherine Jenkins.
Plot: New York, 1971. Following his celebrated days as one of the most revered photojournalists of World War II, W. Eugene Smith (Johnny Depp) has become a recluse, disconnected from society and his career. But a secret commission from Life magazine editor Robert Hayes (Bill Nighy) sends him to the Japanese coastal city of Minamata, which has been ravaged by mercury poisoning; the result of decades of gross industrial negligence by the country’s Chisso Corporation.
There, Smith immerses himself in the community, documenting their efforts to live with Minamata Disease and their passionate campaign to achieve recognition from Chisso and the Japanese government. Armed with only his trusted camera, Smith’s images from the toxic village give the disaster a heartbreaking human dimension, and his initial assignment turns into a life-changing experience.
Minamata is out in UK cinemas now.

    JD talking about the power of the people put a smile on my face b/c it also relates so much to his situation. Imagine if we kept quiet and let Hollywood continue to run their narrative and ruin this man’s life? Like Smith, JD stood up and made a stand against the upper echelon, and I’m so proud of him for that.

    Johnny was unrecognizable with his beard & empathy with the twisted humans of Japanese mercury poisoning ! I was lucky enough to experience all of Eugene’s photos stored in Arizona via a virtual tour world war 11 & Minamata ! Johnny showed the empathy with all the people adults or children & parents ! I never cried so much watching this movie & JD’s approach to holding & singing lullabies to their people ! He was able to teach a child with twisted hands to use a camera ! He convinced me he was Eugene smith ✅it was a terrific role for him to play ! I have recommended this movie to everyone I know & watched it a second time with my husband to share

    When I was a middle school student, my teacher showed us ,"Tomoko and Mother in the Bath". I felt it was dark and sad. I was just shocked by that photograph. Unfortunately I didn't know it was Eugene Smith's work. About 40 years later I watched "Tomoko and Mother in the Bath" again, before I watched The movie,"MINAMATA". I felt it was shocking, sad ,but beautiful at the same time. I can feel love between the mother and her daughter. Without strong trust and understanding between Eugene and Tomoko's mother, it would be impossible to take such an impressive photograph. The movie,"MINAMATA" is telling me why Eugene could take that photograph. I'm so glad to watch this movie.

    We just watch this movie last night. Wow! Every single actor was fantastic. We felt we were there and it was amazing experience. This is a story of corruption with major corporations that still exists today. The one line in the script that Johnny Depp recited was to the Life executive and it was something like this. "You haven't had a story this great since the fake moon landing." Also, Gene Smith is portrayed as a person that did not kiss the ass of the elites in business, but was most gracious to the ordinary person. So many people just do not stand up to the lies. Now is the best time to bring this out and hopefully more movies are made to rally people to stand up against the powerful and question the information sold to all of us. Remember news is a business.

Photographer Eugene Smith, I have never heard of him but... My god! Doing God's work! I had no idea that photos could speak so loudly!!!! The phrase, "A picture is worth a thousand words" tonight I understood this. My heart goes to Japan 🇯🇵 "Tomoko in Her Bath" is Absolute genius!!!! I am inspired by this film. And that's the greatest compliment.

    Listening to Johnny Depp give an impression of the movie immediately brought to mind the Buck Owen's and/or Ringo Starr's song 'Act Naturally.' The movie is a congruent fit to the life he's currently living. On another level, I recall this story with extreme clarity in my Grade 9 Social Science class. I remember the pictures from the magazines, and how our small, tiny, young world was venturing 8nto something, not many had ventured into and one of the reasons I held Life magazine to such a high a standard was the article they done on Dr. Christian Bernhaard and his successful procedure of the world's first heart transplant, all in bright, living color.
