There are few roles in which I like
Johnny Depp, but every time he plays an off-beat character, I really
enjoy his performance. The Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the
Black Pearl is one such occasion.
Here
Depp stars as Jack Sparrow, the famous pirate captain of the Black
Pearl who was abandoned on an island by his first mate Barbarossa
(Geoffrey Rush). Through luck, Jack manages to survive and ends up on
Port Royal in the Caribbean where he encounters an ongoing soap opera
featuring Elizabeth Swans (Keira Knightly) the governor's daughter; Will
Turner (Orlando Bloom), the son of a former pirate but taken in by the
governor, and Norrington (Jack Davenport), the commander in charge of
the armed forces on the island who is set to marry the governor's
daughter. Jack not only has to deal with the governor and the commander
who consider him a thieving pirate, but also with Barbarossa and his crew
who have now acquired the infamous curse of the Black Pearl.
