Bookbinder Creates Nonus Porta For Johnny Depp– January 2012 In the film The Ninth Gate, Dean Corso, a rare-book dealer played by Johnny Depp, was hired by a wealthy book collector Borris Balkin, (Frank Langella) to validate a seventeenth-century copy of The Nine Gates of the Kingdom of Shadows. Inspired by this film based on the novel El Club Dumas, written by Arturo Perez-Reverte, Paul Tronson, owner of Period Fine Bindings www.periodfinebindings.com saw the parallel’s between the historic (prop) books in the film and the reality of his own period editions along with hand crafted books including his latest (fictional) piece of work, the imaginary book ‘Nonus Porta ~ The Nine Gates of the Kingdom of Shadows’. (See blog).
Pre-Production: Producer/Director/Cinematographer, Jim Knox JK@higherfilms.com. Actors Megan L’Hirondelle and myself along with Bookbinder/Owner, Paul Tronson. Thought process for script layout/shot list by Margaret Stead, Paul Tronson and Jim Knox. Storyline shot list outline only, (no actual script). No rehearsal time. Excellent direction by Jim Knox on day of shooting.

Error: Required parameter "filename" is missing!
Due to News broadcast deadlines, I had to cut corners for the camera man to cram in an interview and tape the make-up proceedures for Jack, (along with any bonus footage). I wore my Jack attire rolled up and folded under my red fleece top along with less make-up.
