Twenty years on, it still brings a tear to your eye...

Rating: 10/10 (25 December 2010)

Joyce is a housewife who one day out of desperation to sell products goes up the hill, were no one dares to go. There in the Gothic, deserted mansion, she finds Edward. Edward is different to most people, he has scissors for hands....Joyce decides to take Edward home with her, and a beautiful friendship is born with the neighbourhood and love blossoms between Edward and Kim, Joyce's daughter.
I'm ashamed of myself for not writing this review far earlier, because it is one of my favourite movies, I spent every Christmas watching this movie with my Aunt, and now, well today..I watched it once again, no longer a child of 8, 9 or 10..But 22, and I still found myself on the verge of tears. Edward Scissorhands, is arguably Burton's finest, followed by 'Batman and Batman Returns'.
What makes this film irresistibly amazing is the character Edward, who possesses a child like interest in everything around him, his origin is even more sad, being created by the lonely Vincent Price. To the tender love story between two hearts in the snow... I can speak on and on, about the beautiful poetry of this movie, but I'll finish on the note that this is a 'Gothic Fairy Tale' not to be missed.
