Johnny Depp
In 1995, PBS broadcasted a show called The United States of Poetry, featuring poems from Joseph Brodsky, Derek Walcott, Czeslaw Milosz and Allen Ginsberg amongst others. Each poem would come with a highly polished and paced video where images would be paired with the voice of people such as Lou Reed, Leonard Cohen or Jimmy Carter.
Depp appeared in “Show 5: The word” reading a selection of Kerouac’s 1959 improvisational poetry book “Mexico City Blues: 242 choruses”.
Watch the Johnny Depp’s video reciting Kerouac:
Chorus 113
Got up and dressed up
and went out & got laid
Then died and got buried
in a coffin in the grave,
Man–
Yet everything is perfect,
Because it is empty,
Because it is perfect
with emptiness,
Because it’s not even happening.
Everything
Is Ignorant of its own emptiness–
Anger
Doesn’t like to be reminded of fits–
You start with the Teaching
Inscrutable of the Diamond
And end with it, your goal
is your startingplace,
No race has run, no walk
of prophetic toenails
Across Arabies of hot
meaning–you just
numbly don’t get there.
