Every time I blew my nose at the defamation suit between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard, I felt like I was getting dirty. It looked like a bad TV movie with a script that stumbled upon all the clichés of a stormy relationship starring an extravagant star who has lost her temper and an actress twenty years younger than him with a career that has not yet taken off. Added to this is a gallant reputation for hysteria and a network-fueled liar. In the face of the sessions, I was especially struck by her manifest inability to understand love beyond blindness, that of asking what they can't give you. A love that ends up becoming a constant battle, an infertile wait, or a wild escape. He makes confusing signals, manipulates the other person's emotions and doesn't know how to finish in time, when the envelopes could still be well buried.
On the other hand, why did he make so much of this lawsuit? From the excessive hatred between the couple - he couldn't even look her in the face, while she, who described him as "old without style", copied his looks - all sorts of mockery and memes arose; and even an attendant had to leave the room for a fit of laughter that he was unable to control.

To the ancients, she represented ambition and irreverence before the gods. She has gone down in history as the most masculine character in classic tragedy, a woman who feels at peace hating: “You tempt me as if I were a thoughtless woman. And let me tell you - it was a scary place, and you know it. This is Agamemnon, a corpse already, my husband, who died at the hands of me, a work worthy of an expert artist. " Their resentment led to a form of exacerbated hatred between couples. Neither respect nor self-control, but a justice violence that ends the bond in a traumatic way.

This lawsuit has been rescued because he proved his worth as an actor by following the effective booklet written by his lawyer, while his ex was overacting and losing. He will have to pay ten million, which he claims he does not have - some US media outlets point out that his home insurance covers it. Still, we've both lost, so have we. It has been a deplorable and damaging spectacle for society. A sad story especially what is not love turned into a universal joke.
