What Could I Say About Edward Scissorhands?

Rating: 7/10 (13 November 2019)

This movie is a Christmas favorite. It probably is more Halloweenish, but it's a good go between. This is probably one of Depp's best and most well known characters. It's a really sweet and fun film. It has a happy family tone, and does a terrific job all the way through.
The movie is about a machine/man born with scissors for hands. His creator dies, and a makeup salesman finds him in the mansion years and years later. She brings him to the real world, and he falls in love with her daughter. He becomes the toast of the town, but the jealous people end up isolating him once again. He retreats back to his mansion alone at the end.
It's a great film for the reasons mentioned above. It has a gloomy atmosphere to it, but it doesn't get creepy. The normal town is also very fun to watch. You feel like you want to be a part of it. It's a great film worth watching during the holiday season.
