Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber Of Fleet Street

Benjamin Barker (Depp) is a happy man, he has a good career as a barber and a beautiful wife and baby daughter. That is until Judge Turpin (Rickman) falls in love with Benjamin's wife. The corrupt judge has Benjamin deported from London for life, in an attempt to remove his rival for Mrs. Barker's affections. Years later, Benjamin has taken the alias Sweeney Todd and returns to London to reap vengeance on those who conspired to send him away. Taking up his old profession, Sweeney Todd sets up shop just above Nellie Lovett's (Carter) pie shop, who is reported to serve the worst meat pies in London. Rumors of a Demon Barber Of Fleet Street abound, as patrons who visit Todd's barber shop are never seen again, whilst Mrs. Lovett's savory pies now enjoy great acclaim for their exotic tasting meat. Based on the musical play by Stephen Sondheim and Hugh Wheeler. Sweeney Todd won an Academy Award for Best Art Direction. (Stacey Pendry)
