Edward Scissorhands: required school post
A common misconception about Edward Scissorhands is that his hands are scissors. He actually doesn't have hands he has a glove that i believe he puts on over a stump and each individual finger is a scissor, not just one big scissor each hand. If that was the case, the movie would probably be called Edward Hedge-clippers. However he is very good at making ice sculptures and hedge art with his scissors anyway
Directed b Tim Burton
Edward is Played by Johnny Depp
The film was released in 1990
Johnny Depp was in practically ever good movie ever, such as sleepy hollow, Charlie in the Chocolate factory, Alice in wonderland, Rango, pirates of the Caribbeans series and more
I love Johnny Depp, he is literally my favorite actor
Notes
ReplyDelete-Kinds of set as a nighttime story for a child, the teller is actually who falls in love with Edward. Told in the future to who i suppose is her child.
-Eerie music and cheerful music influences the scene and story helping create dramatic mood.
- All the houses are painted in bright colors in contrast to Edwards house on the hill and his attire
-The driving up to the house starts out as curious and wonderful but slowly turns eerie and odd and creepy.
-Edwards outfit is dark compared to the kind of up beat and bright colors of the neighborhood.
-Edward is quiet and awkward, not knowing most common things that most people know.Very humble and shy.
Notes 2:
ReplyDelete- Some highlights are when everyone discovers Edwards talent for cutting hair, and when he is arrested for breaking and entering (which was actually a joint effort in which Jim and Kim leave him for the police to find.Edward us so dramatically misunderstood. Everyone thinks hes crazy, or a criminal but he is innocent.
- Jim is killed by Edward
-The old lady telling the story is actually Kim.
Notes 3:
ReplyDelete-Tim Burton may be trying to help people understand that even though people can be different, and are different, they may be being misunderstood, like Edward was. He creates a polished bright and colorful neighborhood where everyone wears bright summer dresses and what not whereas Edward is in all black and lives in a old house on a hill.
- Edward is a tragic figure he fell in love and after the incident in the attic, he never sees Kim again.
- Tim Burton often works with actors and actresses who are well known and are particularly talented.This is probably done to help him create the exact mood he wants to in a film.
