Actor Johnny Depp joked about drinking Friday and lavished praise on his actress daughter Lily-Rose at the Venice film festival.
The US star, who plays a sadistic colonel alongside British actors Mark Rylance and Robert Pattinson in Waiting for the Barbarians, teased that he loved being in Italy.
“For one, people speak very good Italian,” he drawled.
“The food is very good and I do like wine occasionally. Why do you laugh?” he asked reporters.
The ageing enfant terrible, now 56, quipped during his messy 2016 divorce from actress Amber Heard that “it’s insulting to say that I spent $30,000 on wine… because it was far more.”
But last year the Willy Wonka and The Pirates of the Caribbean actor admitted that he was “as low as I believe I could have gotten.”
