Phone 0400 360 357 or email [email protected] Ask any die-hard Johnny Depp fan about his hunkiest role, and you’ll get a range of answers. Near the top of any true devotee’s list, however, should be the 1990 John Waters musical Cry-Baby, which hit theaters 25 years ago this week. This rock musical features Depp at his absolute most swoon-worthy. If you’ve come this far in life without seeing Cry-Baby, know that it’s a more rockin’ take on the typical Grease formula of a bad boy falling in love with a good girl. Depp channels his inner Elvis in his performance as Wade “Cry-Baby” Walker, the leader of a greaser gang. Amy Locane plays Allison, the Goody Two-shoes who yearns for more, and it’s quite easy to understand how Cry-Baby wins her heart. Depp, who was just 26 when the film hit theaters, was at the time best known for A Nightmare on Elm Street and 21 Jump Street, and Edward Scissorhands wouldn’t hit theaters for nine months. Cry-Baby was the first film to hinge on the actor’s ability to make hearts throb. Come on – just look at that face. As Cry-Baby, Depp can simultaneously smirk, scowl and smolder. He’s passionate. He’s coarse. But he’s also sensitive … … and he only has eyes for one girl. He can even make licking a prison partition look sexy. Also, take a look at that jawline. Although Depp has has long moonlighted as a musician – that was really him playing guitar in Chocolat – he’s lip-synching to vocals by rockabilly singer James Intveld. But you’d better believe Depp sells it: In what is maybe the film’s best song, Cry-Baby leads most of the film’s cast in “Please, Mr. Jailer.” A jukebox musical, Cry-Baby features a host of lesser-known 1950s gems such as the heartbreak ballad "Teardrops Are Falling," which the movie weaves seamlessly into the plot. And yes, Depp dances. And if we are to discuss sexiness in Cry-Baby beyond Johnny Depp, it has to be said that Traci Lords is stunning as Wanda, one of the bad girls. This was only Lords’s second mainstream film following her previous career as a porn star. Wanda is but one in a long line of John Waters’s tough female characters. And on the far other side of the spectrum, there’s the wonderfully monstrous creation known as Hatchet-Face (Kim McGuire). If you haven’t seen Cry-Baby, this GIF doesn’t come close to doing her justice. But if you do celebrate this film’s silver anniversary with a screening, you’ll be thinking of Johnny. An Aug. 18 screening of the John Waters film at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery will double as a remembrance of the late Johnny Ramone, a cult movie fan whose statue stands on the grounds.

Director John Waters and former adult film star Traci Lords will participate in a screening of Johnny Depp‘s movie debut, 1990’s Cry-Baby, at the 9th annual Johnny Ramone Tribute at Hollywood Forever Cemetery that includes a Q-and-A. No one will say whether Depp will be among the surprise celebrity guests at the Aug. 18 event, but his breakout 1950s juvenile-delinquent performance will be projected on the 42-foot mausoleum wall, along with vintage live Ramones concert footage. Honoree Ramone, a cult-film (and Waters film) fan, has a statue in the cemetery near Dee Dee Ramone‘s grave. “Bring your picnic basket and a drink, throw down a blanket, and watch Johnny Depp’s first movie in a graveyard under the stars — sounds like a party to me,” says Lords, a friend of Ramone and his widow, Linda Ramone. Adds Waters, “Linda and [Sex Pistol] Steve Jones will judge a Ramones look-alike contest — maybe I should enter.” Speaking with The Hollywood Reporter, Waters recalls that, “everyone in Cry-Baby was in acting image rehab. If you embrace what your critics are saying and make fun of it, you turn it around.” PHOTOS: 7 Cult Objects Top Screenwriters Obsess Over Lords agrees: “Every single member of that cast had so much to prove,” she says. “I mean, Johnny Depp desperately wanted to be a movie star, and everybody said he couldn’t, because he was only a supporting actor on 21 Jump Street. This was his first lead in a movie, a big deal for him. Iggy Pop was sober and wanted to prove he could be more than a rock star. Ricki Lake wanted desperately to be a talk-show hostess. I wanted to leave my teenage porn years behind. Amy Locane, the female lead, was 17 — she wanted to get out of high school. Now she’s in prison.” In February, Locane was sentenced to three years for vehicular homicide. Lords’ career as a real actor has lasted nine times longer than her stint as an underage porn star. “I’ve been in the jungle with Stephen King‘s Tommyknockers, in Francis Ford Coppola‘s First Wave, last year’s Sundance film Excision, with John playing a priest, but I’ve never had more fun than I did in Cry-Baby.” Though Locane steals the show, Lords was better at writhing provocatively against the glass of a prisoner’s visiting room. “I had more experience writhing. Let’s just get real here, OK?” STORY: Johnny Depp, Guitarist, Surprises Crowd at Tom Petty Tribute Show In September, Lords will send her son to kindergarten and start a movie the next day, Dale Resteghini‘s Crash the Sky. Waters is writing his hitchhiking memoir, Carsick, and looking forward to eternity resting alongside his stars Divine and Mink Stole in a Maryland cemetery. “We’ve all bought plots there — we call it Disgraceland,” says Waters. All drinks are allowed at the party, which starts at 5:30 p.m. The $10 ticket benefits the Johnny Ramone Cancer Research Fund at USC Westside Prostate Cancer Center.
