As the dreamboat delinquent "drape" who rocks the Wonderbread suburbs of 1954 Baltimore, John Waters was the first to cast Depp in a lead role.  Here, Depp teaches white-sweater sweetheart (Amy Locane) the joys of heavy petting. It's a rockabilly rebellion, and these cats rumble in song: the hushed, romantic harmonies of the "squares" versus the swaggering sex of rough and ready R&B from the "drapes." Depp sends up his own TV image with unhinged eagerness, whether seducing his good-girl deb, sneering and shaking through a jailhouse rock musical number, or confronting the watchdogs of middle class propriety: "I may be a drape, but I love your granddaughter. And if that's a crime, I'll stand convicted, ma'am."
