That sentence is the most common of Edward's words One sentence, but it made me cry on the eve of an exam. The reason for watching this movie is Tim Burton, but accidentally fell in love with Johnny Depp. This is indeed a romantic love story with a somewhat sad emotionally bleak ending. I know the actress who played Kim and Johnny tried to add a happy ending to this beautiful movie in real life.
Too bad they ultimately failed. Fairy tales are fairy tales after all, and the eternal and pure love I once believed in because of Edward was just the perfect imagination of the screenwriter in fairy tales.
To be honest, Edward is a ridiculous and dramatic presence, and a character like this usually brings back the softest parts of people's hearts. Seeing that somewhat terrifying face full of knife marks, I could smell the refreshing heart of green grass. Just because of his heart, we can ignore everything else about him, we even ignore his identity.
He is just a machine, an unfinished machine.
Unlike the machine, he is full of gratitude and love. He will sigh because of Scissorhands, he will be overwhelmed because of his lover, and he will do things that harm himself and others because of his kindness, even if that person is his greatest rival in love.
He was brave in leaving, burying the tears in his heart, and waiting for it to bloom bravely. If he hadn't met the kind Peg, if he hadn't fallen in love with the beautiful Kim, then he probably didn't know what loneliness was. He will roam freely in his castle, and he will not understand how painful it is to miss and love. If he hadn't left his room, he wouldn't have known how lonely he was.
The last scene, that beautiful ice sculpture. Edward used his scissors to draw the image of the woman he loved the most. At that time, Kim was already old, sitting in a rocking chair and reading stories to his granddaughter. Then, she wept. She didn't even know that Edward missed her so much in that dark castle, and her memory in his memory was always her most beautiful moment.
For a split second I started to pray, this is not a beautiful fairy tale.
