Author Gordon Dahlquist, an interview about "The Glass Books of the Dream Eaters"
Johnny Depp's production company, Infinitum Nihil, optioned this book, so of course I had to read it and once I read it, I wanted to talk with its author, the fascinating Gordon Dahlquist.
"The Glass Books of the Dream Eaters" is a suspense, mystery, fantasy novel set in a Victorian period fictional European country, the story unfolds over two and half days and includes characters with names such as Cardinal Chang, Miss Temple and Doctor Svenson. Ok that did it, I love it. Read what Mr. Dahlquist had to say here: Click here: Johnny Depp Reads Message Board -> JDR talks with Gordon Dahlquist I think you'll be intrigued too!

John Michael Bolger speaks with JohnnyDeppReads
John Michael Bolger is currently best known for his four season run as Lt. Johnson in the series Third Watch. But earlier this year, he caught the attention of the many people watching the filming of Public Enemies, the film about 1930s gangster John Dillinger and his gang.
John Dillinger's being played by Johnny Depp and John Michael Bolger plays Chicago police officer Martin Zarkovich. Mr. Bolger spent untold hours greeting the fans, he was, in my estimation, second only to Depp in the number of hours spent with the fans and people who were on the streets for hours, day in and day out, watching the filming. I wanted to talk to this humble man, to see what motivated him and how he got from TV to the movies. This is the first part of our conversation, the second part will run tomorrow. It's posted here Click here: Johnny Depp Reads Message Board -> JDR talks with JOHN MICHAEL BOLGER in our main forum.
