2. Edward Scissorhands is a 1990 film directed by Tim Burton and co-written by Burton and screenwriter Caroline Thompson. It stars Johnny Depp as Edward Scissorhands,Winona Ryder as Kim Boggs, and Dianne Wiest as Peg Boggs. Vincent Price also has a role in the film; his last performance before his death. The film centers Peg Boggs who meets a young, shy, quirky and bizarre looking man named Edward - with hands made of scissors - and adopts him into her own 'typical American' family. The movie is a fable set in an exaggeratedly stereotypical vision of American suburbia that intentionally combines clichés from both the 1950s and the late 1980s. It also has a central theme of the isolated, misunderstood major character, a theme that recurs in much of Burton's work. Further, many of the motifs and themes of the 1931 film Frankenstein are referenced in Edward Scissorhands.

3. Edward Scissorhands Edward is an artificial man whose inventor died before being able to put hands on his creation. Instead Edward has many long metal scissor-blades for hands. Incomplete and all alone is the line used to describe Edward at the beginning of the movie, but he finds true love and is genuinely happy even if for only a short time. Sadly, he and his love are separated and he lives the rest of his life alone. MAIN CHARACTER
