I dunno--unlike the bowdlerizing of the book you and Womzilla discuss, two prints of the movie seems unlikely. I recall Veruca's request as just one quick line in the middle of a scene in which the focus was elsewhere, and it could easily have been missed. If I see it again, which is unlikely but not impossible, I'll see if Womzilla and I were wrong or what. I can see your point about a lack of subtlety, but I don't necessarily see that as a flaw int his type of film. Also, I thought much, much more of Depp's acting than you did, and I liked a lot of his facial expression during the argument scene. (I almost said "mugging," and in a way that fits, but in a way it's too exaggerating a term for his acting.)
