Why did the Wilmot Proviso fail to pass in the Senate?
The Wilmot Provisio passed in the House of Representatives, because the amount of representatives per state depends on the population. The population of all of the northern states was greater than that of the southern states. This means that since there were more Northern Representatives, it was passed. However, the amount of senators per state is the same regardless of population. In some sense, the power between the North and South was much more equal in the Senate as opposed to the House. That is why the Wilmot Provisio was passed in the House, but not the Senate.

How is Johnny Depp portrayed as an anti-hero in his movies?
Depp has never shied away from characters that are less than sterling. Case in point would be his portrayal of John Wilmont, Second Earl of Rochester, in The Libertine. Based on Wilmont's life in the 1600's, it was easy to dislike this character, but a lessor actor would never have been able to do justice to Wilmont's inner and outer turmoil, an intellect trapped inside his own head.
