Johnny Depp: Michael Jackson is like J. M. Barrie
Johnny Depp, an American actor, believes that the film recently made about J. M. Barrie (the author of Peter Pan) could help Michael Jackson prove his innocence.
“Finding Neverland,” released last month and directed by Marc Forster, stars Johnny Depp and Kate Winslet.
The story of this film revolves around Barrie’s relationship with the boys who inspired the insights he needed to shape the character of the lost boys in his own story.
Johnny Depp is concerned about why, nowadays, such relationships should end up in police interrogations—like the case that has happened to Michael Jackson.
When he was asked whether Michael should use this film in court, he replied:
"Yes, maybe. A lot of the criticism about Barrie was unfair. It all comes down to what Marlon Brando said. He always used to say: ‘Were you there?! No, you weren’t.’... Later, those boys were interviewed and they said they had never been sexually abused by Barrie. Barrie was truly a great man. He loved those kids, and they loved him too. That’s what it all boils down to."
