Tim Burton

Edward Scissorhands is one of the most loved Burton's films. The film contains lots of Tim's typical elements: snow, sombre-toned scenery, exceptional young man and innocent beauty. Edward is a sensitive creature made by a nutty inventor, who dies and leaves Edward entirely alone. Luckily one lady adopts him and takes him to a whole new world, which is a typical suburbia filled with pastel colours and narrow-minded people. Because Edward has scissors as hands, he gets suspicious looks and people think that he is vicious. Eventually inhabitants understand that Edward is a harmless soul and doesn't want to hurt anyone. Edward falls in love with beautiful Kim, who first despites him but then sees the beauty of the uncommon boy. Though they can't hold each other physically, their hearts are meant to be together forever. The movie has an incredibly beautiful score composed by Danny Elfman, who has also composed music for Tim's other films. Johnny Depp makes his best role in this widely adored film.

At the moment Tim is filming two movies: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and The Corpse Bride. They both will come to theatres next July. Let's hope that we can enjoy his films in the future, too.
