Unfortunately for Barker, voluptuous Judge Turpin (Alan Rickman) coveted his wife and sentenced him to a life of hard labor so that he could ravish Lucy. The woman couldn't survive disgrace and poisoned herself with arsenic. Following that, the judge took Barker's little daughter, Johanna (Jayne Wisener), as his ward, perhaps to soothe his conscience. Fifteen years later, Barker escaped from prison and returned to his hometown under the assumed name of Sweeney Todd, only to find his beloved wife dead and his grown-up daughter in the clutches of the corrupt judge. Embittered and devastated, Todd vowed vengeance against Turpin and his henchman, Beadle Bamford (Timothy Spall). He followed advice of his former landlady Mrs. Lovett's (Helena Bonham Carter) and reopened his barbershop in the hope of someday luring the judge and slitting his throat with his sharp razor. |
