Origin Story: 

• Directed by Tim Burton and starring Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder, Edward Scissorhands is often considered one of Burton’s signature works, blending dark fairy-tale stylings with suburban satire and heartfelt emotion.
• The film follows Edward, an artificial man created by an eccentric inventor. 
• Before the inventor can finish him, he dies, leaving Edward with scissors instead of hands. Edward lives in isolation until Peg Boggs, a kind Avon saleswoman, discovers him and brings him home to her pastel-colored suburban neighborhood.
• As Edward tries to fit in, the community is alternately fascinated and fearful of him. He falls in love with Peg’s daughter Kim, but misunderstandings and growing distrust eventually turn the town against him. 
• The film ends as a modern fairy tale - beautiful and bittersweet.
