Edward Scissorhands

An inventor dies before he can complete his greatest creation — Edward an artificial man with long sharp scissors in place of hands. Discovered living alone in the inventor’s dark castle Edward is taken in by the Avon lady Peg Boggs and briefly embraced by her pastel suburb for his topiary and haircut skills before the community turns on him as communities always do with things they cannot categorize. Tim Burton’s fable about the cost of being different is his most personal and beautifully realized work.
