Edward is a robot, he has almost exactly the same set of organs as a human, except for the hands that are made up of many scissors, that's because his father, the amazing inventor, hasn't had time to replace him with a pair of real ones. man has died. So, he took the pair of scissors to live in seclusion in the castle, and also took it to the world with Peg, the Avon salesman.
When Edward looked at this strange world with excitement like a child, he wouldn't know that he was no longer with the lovely big machines and beautiful animal biscuits in the old castle; but when Edward showed his genius , using his scissors to take care of the bushes, puppies and even housewives in the community to make them as beautiful as his fairy tale world, when he thinks he has a big happy family, he will not know, in Behind him, among those beautiful or ugly housewives, what kind of voyeurism, suspicion, rumors, frame-ups... This is our world, when you see those bright red, green and colorful houses Sure enough, but who will tell poor Edward?
If the story ended like this, Edward would have lived an ordinary life like you and me. As for his scissorhands, think of it as a little handicap or a gift from heaven, but I told you, it's a fairy tale , a robot love fairy tale. Thus, Edward inevitably fell in love with Peg's daughter, pure gold. So, when Kim's boyfriend urged Kim to let him go to his father's house to steal, he didn't look back. Even if a person was left behind and captured, he didn't leak the secret to the police, even when Kim felt Edward's kindness and refused. When the despicable boyfriend is still entangled, he will resolutely kill to protect her! You know, his inventor father taught him kindness, grace, and love long before he even took shape. And even if he was hugged by Jin, all he saw was his weird scissor hand. He knew that he couldn't hug his beloved one, and only the lonely old castle and machine belonged to him.
Throughout the film, Tim, as a former painter, maintained his usual beautiful pictures, mysterious castles, lovely machines, flying snowflakes, clear ice sculptures... As long as you pay attention, you can always capture enough shock.
But what moved me the most was Edward's pale face and eyes, clear, innocent, helpless, hopeless... I felt a little heartache, I think, even for Depp, this is probably the case. It's also his pinnacle.
Oh, I almost forgot, where did the snow come from? At the end of the film, Grandma says that it never snows in this town, and it started snowing after Edward came down from the mountain. Perhaps, this is a gift he gave to the world, a beauty and purity.
