Depp role 'made sick woman laugh'

The actor was touched to learn that his portrayal of the camp Captain Jack Sparrow had tickled the woman when her husband took her to watch the film.
He told Esquire: "One time a guy told me that he brought his wife to see Pirates of the Caribbean. She had lost her motor skills. I forget what you call it. It's not autism. They made a movie about it, where you recede and your functions start to go.
"Anyway, they're watching the film, and when Captain Jack Sparrow came on the screen, she started to laugh. This guy said he hadn't heard that laugh in years. And so he took her back to see the film repeatedly."
