As we told you here, Johnny Depp talked openly about his affinity for the horse who he said, “saved his life” by treading carefully after the star’s scary fall during the filming of The Lone Ranger.
At around the one minute mark (above) you can see Depp’s tumble and 25 foot drag, after which he pops-up like a champ, a champ with some pretty epic abs as the crew rushes to his side!

New Mexico based Artist and Documentary filmmaker Ed Breeding, “offers the world a wonderful and motivational look at the gay journey” in his new film “Strait Line Curve”, which showcases seven successful gay men of the Southwest United States who do not fit the stereotypes often associated with homosexuality.
Breeding says, “Each man has a high profile and is fulfilled, optimistic, inspirational and proud.”
Rev. Canon Albert Ogle of San Diego’s St. Paul’s Cathedral 4 the City tells SDGLN.com that, “The film will go into countries in Africa and to Jamaica, where LGBT people are being persecuted and murdered, and this film is designed to counteract that with love and understanding; inclusion, not exclusion.”
Read an extensive interview with Breeding by San Diego Gay and Lesbian news here.
The 32-minute film is now available on DVD – STRAIGHT LINE CURVE – Seven men of the American Southwest redefining the word gay. A DVD of this 32-minute film can be purchased for $15.00 plus s/h $5.00 in USA by contacting:

Local actor making big strides in the booming New Mexico film industry requires some back-up at the role which helped put him and catapult him into stardom!
OHI fave & friend, Jackamoe Buzzell is in need of an understudy to relieve him on Saturday’s and whenever he books a late audition, film or TV show.
Jackamoe plays a 1920’s Gangster at the world famous speakeasy Vernon’s Hidden Valley Steakhouse. The steakhouse is looking for a Caucasian or African-American male of any age with outstanding improvisational skills and lots of energy.
The bigger the better, however acting skills and what you create with the character are more important than size. For example; a badass little person would be great as well as a Joe Pesci type character.
This could also be good for comedians or MMA fighters with personality that want to break into acting. We are willing to consider any type of cool character that an actor can come up with.
Please send your headshot, bodyshot, resume and reel if available with any questions you may have to Minda Harrell minda@thehiddensteakhouse.com.

Does the world need a Johnny Depp day? CANTMISSTV.COM says so!
For one, the man is 50. 50! It is a shocking number for a leading
man that looks, and still plays, much younger than his actual age,
but also because he has had such a crazy career. He’s been in such a
long list of great movies, and so many of the roles have been more
unique and more interesting than standard Hollywood leading man stuff.
Many actors have set out on a journey to find interesting roles, and
you’d surely recognize some of them, you might even know their names,
but I’m fairly certain none of them have had the career Johnny has
had. In his first 6 years in the business he went from A Nightmare on
Elm Street, to Platoon, to John Water’s Cry-Baby, to 21 Jump Street,
to Edward Scissorhands. He ended that run as a bonafide star, but had
already done a mix of commercial, and artistic, off-beat projects.
Amazingly, that run was over 20 years ago, which is what makes Depp’s
50th birthday so noteworthy. He has put in a lot of time, done a lot
of great work, but (by all appearances) has done it his way…and that
demands recognition! Happy 50th Johnny!
