Tim Burton’s Edward Scissorhands
(PG-13, 1990, 105 min)
A scientist (Vincent Price) builds an animated human being—the gentle Edward (Johnny Depp). The scientist dies before he can finish assembling Edward, though, leaving the young man with scissor blades instead of hands. Loving suburban saleswoman Peg (Dianne Wiest) discovers Edward and takes him home, where he falls for Peg’s teen daughter (Winona Ryder). However, despite his kindness and artistic talent, Edward’s hands make him an outcast.
