Doug Stanhope
Interview
By Johnny Depp
Descrizione:
Actor Johnny Depp found a kindred spirit in comedian Doug Stanhope. After taking in Stanhope’s 2007 comedy special No Refunds, Depp made a point of reaching out to the stand-up, anxious to learn more about the man he saw telling raw truths on stage in the vein of the late great Lenny Bruce. After connecting by phone, the two formed a friendship that led to Depp executive producing two of Stanhope’s stand-up specials, The Comedians’ Comedian’s Comedians and No Place Like Home, both now available on Seeso. Depp also penned the foreword to Stanhope’s 2016 book Digging Up Mother.
While the two have achieved different levels of renown in different fields, they bonded over a shared comedic aesthetic that places truth telling above all else—at any cost.
Setting aside the traditional High Times Interview format this month, we decided to hand things over to Mr. Depp and Mr. Stanhope who got together for a freewheeling conversation about, among other things, comedy, creativity and fame.
