We are delighted to announce the opening of two new galleries in The Deppartment. In our new NO COLOR gallery, Sleepy shares thirty-two stunning black-and-white photographs of Johnny Depp from her outstanding collection–timeless photographs of an iconic actor. And our new NEVERLAND VENICE gallery contains twenty photographs from Johnny’s appearance at the Venice film festival this weekend.

In addition to the new Deppartment galleries, we have updated Sleepy’s Specials for September–twenty-one more gorgeous photos of Johnny Depp!

The Zone thanks AnaMaria for donating two of her screencaps to the NEVERLAND VENICE gallery–she captured them from Johnny’s interview on Dutch TV. They are the final two images in the gallery. Finally, the Zone webmasters send their heartfelt thanks to our web designer, Mostly Harmless, who came back from a Hurricane Frances evacuation to mount these galleries for the Zone. Her hard work is very much appreciated!

Heartland Film Festival president Jeff Sparks announced today that the Indianapolis festival will conclude on October 29, 2004 with an IMAX showing of FINDING NEVERLAND! Indianapolis Star reporter Bonnie Britton reminded her readers that “Despite a more than two-hour late start at about 2 a.m. Sunday at the Venice Film Festival, the movie about PETER PAN creator J.M. Barrie received a standing ovation from the audience.”

Ticket prices are a very reasonable $15. FINDING NEVERLAND will be shown at the IMAX Theater in White River State Park. Hors d’oeuvres will be served at 6:30, with the screening to begin at 7:30. Tickets for all special events go on sale Friday through Heartland’s toll-free ticket line at (866) HFF-1010; or at www.heartlandfilmfestival.org. Thanks to DeepinDepp for posting this story. The Zone hopes plenty of Hoosiers will be able to take advantage of this opportunity.

Johnny’s appearance at the Venice Film Festival is featured in the new US Magazine, cover date September 20, 2004. Sam reports a full-page picture of Johnny and FINDING NEVERLAND co-star Kate Winslet appears on page 20. The photo was taken at the press conference and features Johnny in a black-and-white striped shirt. Meanwhile, page 8 of IN TOUCH offers a smaller photo of Johnny in the black pin-striped suit he wore to the screening, and includes the following caption: “Johnny looks better than ever [. . .] Johnny Depp, looking much younger than his 41 years, sent fans a smoldering gaze at the Venice Film Festival. The sexier-than-ever star was in town for the premiere of his new movie, FINDING NEVERLAND, in which he plays J.M. Barrie, the author of PETER PAN.” IN TOUCH also features Johnny and Vanessa Paradis as #8 in their ranking of The 10 Most Devoted Couples in Hollywood. Johnny’s quote “She’s the woman of my life” leads off a brief recap of the Depp-Paradis romance on page 53. There is a medium-sized photo of Johnny and Vanessa at the Governor’s Ball at this year’s Oscars, and a small inset photo of Johnny and Vanessa, with Johnny holding a toddler Lily-Rose in his arms. The Zone thanks Sam for keeping a sharp eye on the newsstand!
