Johnny Depp as Rafael in The Brave (1997) Hear and / or read what Johnny Depp says about this film ... My opinion: Money can never be so important ... Love is more important ... Wealth can never replace love #Repost @alicewalker_17 @download.ins --- -We always say: I would kill for my family or I would die for my family!! But would you really.. I mean when really put in that situation, would you really.. would you really give up your life? Do you really love something or someone that much? Raphael's family and other people have placed themselves on the side of this dump, a very large junk pile where they can live off scavenge bits of materials, they can sell them for a few pennies and feed themselves. In a certain sense when the film begins Raphael is already dead, he feels a complete failure as a husband as a father, he's unable to provide to his family, he just can't bear to see his family suffering so much, his two little kids and the little boy that he's probably going to grow up and be just like him. So Raphael condemning himself to death by sacrificing his life for his family, in a weird way at that moment he learns to live again, he takes his first breath probably in many years. -He now feels that this money can bring them out of this abject poverty, this horrible life that they live. He's now able to provide for them, so the money is in many ways evil. In this world we can't live without,in this society that we live, money has kind of oddly replaced spirituality and God or whatever you want to call it. Money it's become power but paradoxically it's become life itself. JD talking about Raphael - The Brave- is a 1997 independent drama film. This film was Depp's directorial debut.
