Stylistic patterns are inherent components of any film. In most cases, filmmakers resort to identical patterns and salient techniques in several films organized around one element. In this regard, Tim Burton, a filmmaker who is famous for such films as Edward Scissorhands and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory , adheres to similar techniques to render the emotional atmosphere and original idea. In the film under consideration, Burton resorts to grotesque, alienation, and isolation when describing characters suffering from isolation through shooting, acting, costumes, and setting. The filmmaker applies these techniques in order to contrast the viewers’ stylistic expectations because both films have strange settings and architecture to emphasize the fabulousness throughout the stories. In addition, such contrast representation of costumes and setting is aimed at highlighting the heroes’ alienation and isolation from society. Finally, Burton also makes use of music being a powerful technique in emphasizing the overall mystical and fabulous atmosphere of the films. In both films, Tim Burton provides an unusual, even mystical, presentation of the setting. Hence, in The Charlie and the Chocolate Factory , a huge accent is made on the architecture and setting, which is timeless and refers to different architectural styles. The village where Charlie reminds of the Middle Ages where the Chocolate factory refers to modern times being adherent to a fascist architecture. In the scene when Willi Wonka invites the children to his factory, everyone is terrified of the building because it differs greatly from their usual image of chocolate factories. Similarly, the film Edward Scissorhands provides a depiction of Edward’s house whose style reminds of Gothic architecture. Notably, the house contrasts greatly with other buildings in the town that can also be considered as a weird place where everything seems to be unreal or two ideal. Perhaps, this town can be associated with the concept of the American Dream that is also present in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory . Here Tim Burton makes use of design as a special technique to emphasize the mystery and fabulousness of the scenes. For example, the viewer can definitely perceive specific spirituality while watching the very first scene depicting perfectly cut lawns and beautiful flowerbeds. Locating a dark and creepy house in the background of this perfect world breaks the established balance in a perfect world where people are obsessed with a stereotypic way of thinking. In addition, the atmosphere of a fairy tale where scenes are filled with characters that seem to be real at a glance, but a closer look reveals that they are capable of doing surreal things. In this final scene, the viewers can observe how Edward can create ice sculptures. Therefore, when presented as a realistic film, the movie does not provide much for considerations, but when analyzed as a fairy tale, its ideas are clearly justified. Another important technique used by the filmmaker is the character’s costumes which complement the overall idea about Burton’s skillful use of such stylistic devices as grotesque to highlight the moments of excess and to present viewers with a better image of the film’s fictional world where realistic pictures are disto
