Edward scissorhands trailer

My favourite film is Tim Burton's Edward Scissorhands, starring Winona Ryder (the blond girl in the movie) and the absolutely fabulous Johnny Depp (Edward). The original soundtrack is Danny Elfman, a true genius who composed almost all of Burton's movie soundtracks (Beetlejuice, Batman, Big Fish ...)!!


"Edward Scissorhands" is the first movie in which Burton and Depp collaborated, in which they became closest friends !! There have been 6 other movies in which they collaborated too, after this one : Ed Wood (1994), Sleepy Hollow (1999), Charlie and the chocolate factory (2005), The Corpse bride (2005) and Alice in Wonderland (2009) ! And it's not finished !!


I 'm fond of Tim Burton's fairy world since I was 5 when I saw "The Nightmare before Chrismas", thanks to my mother, also a Burton's and Depp's huge fan !
But I was already 13 when I saw Edward Scissorhands for the first time on TV !! I cried a lot in the end, and I fell in love with Johnny from this day ! And I started to collect all Burton's and depp's movies on DVDs.


Even if you don't like the movie, you can at least be overwhelmed with emotion while listening to the music !! I consider Danny Elfman as my favourite music composer (with john Williams)!
It's a music that makes you dream !by


The movie is about a young man named Edward (Johnny Depp), created artificially, but whose creator died before giving him hands (that's why he's got scissors instead of hands)! After his "dad" 's death, he lived all by himself in the huge castle you can see at the beginning of the trailer, until one day, a nice lady selling cosmetics came to his house, saw him, and decided to take him to her house to take care of him. Edward is a gentle boy, who wants to please his friends, but doesn't understand the rules of society (as he lived all by himself), and the neighborhood, first impressed by the coming of a new inhabitant and by his talented hands (he can cut humans and dogs' hair perfectly, and take care of your garden), they finally rejected him, because of him being different. Edward would also fall in love with Kim (Winona Ryder), the nice lady's girl, who is the one who doesn't want to consider him as an extraordinary person. At first, she doesn't seem pleased to have him in her house (he took her room), but in the end, they would fell in love, and she will save him!

This film is really important to Johnny Depp because :

1. thanks to it, he has been able to break up with the image the serie "21 Jumper Street" gave him (an image of teenage girls idol),
2. he met his closest friend, Tim Burton, who will make him play in 6 other movies,
3. he found his style (he loves to play characters on the marge of society, characters who fell pain),
4. he found his first love, Winona Ryder, with who he lived for 3 years

I have already told too much about this movie, and i'd like you to watch it, if you haven't already !
enjoy
