Eleven years later...
Tim Burton was twenty-four years old, and the Walt Disney Company discovered the youth's talent and gave him the freedom to create his own short films. So he made a six-minute animated short "Vincent"[1], which was a tribute to horror film actor Vincent Price[2], and invited Vincent Price to do Dub. The short film tells the story of a 7-year-old boy, Vincent, who always fantasizes about being the horror film actor Vincent Price, playing a disturbed murderer after burying his bride alive, and imagining how he tortured the little boy. Dogs and other plots that are not very satisfactory to Disney are too inappropriate for pure and innocent children, although they are all fantasy, and the villains in the fantasy still have bad results, and the little boy finally fantasizes that he will die in the Edgar Allan Poe ending. .
Twenty-three years later...
Tim Burton is forty-seven years old, he's made a lot of movies, the great horror movie actor Vincent Price has been in his movies, but he's still the right one A boy who is not satisfied with himself, like Edward who was not done well, but still actively shooting the movie he loves like Ed.

's character. Although her heart has been buried in the ground, the candle burns without pain, and the sharp blade cuts it, it is still the same, but the tears can't stop flowing, and she can cry out the eyeball, wipe it off and put it back on. When you are sad, you can play the piano, and when you are happy, you can dance on the piano keys without your arms, and you can dance on your lover at will.
How can such a lovely girl stay in a world that is rigid like a clock on the ground? The underground is her world, time stops, skeleton jazz, the lights are green and wine, the phantom of the song is enough to forget the sorrows of the world. But Amelie's broken heart always has the little mermaid's desire for love, illusory love, and touching vows. There was a man who appeared in her short life, and that man gave her the promise of a beautiful love - to stay together for a lifetime, only death can separate them. Death separated them, the man killed her, and for the little money on her body, why didn't this serious pastor think of the existence of marriage vows on earth?
Victor's accidental appearance made her dead heart have a new wish. Unlike the poor little mermaid, it was Victor who was accidentally brought into the lively and colorful world underground, not Amelia who accidentally rescued Victor by the grave. . Whoever has more crowds behind them has the final say. In order to realize Victor's oath to her, he will kill Victor and pull him to the underground team.
On the other side of the earth, Victoria is also trying to win her lover. Like Amy, her first wedding was also dedicated to the murderer who wanted to make money. It's just that she is more clear-headed and is familiar with everything on earth. Her first understanding of marriage is to save her family's predicament, and secondly, she dares to carefully reveal her love yearning.
The two lovely girls were both involved in the battle of the beauty to save the bear. Victor was like a puppet with no opinion, dealing with the two of them, at the mercy of them.
The battle between the two girls has affected the world on the ground and the underground. The church is illuminated by the sounds of hell, and a happy event is about to come true. At this moment, Amy is not fighting alone, she is not alone! She faced the eyes and expectations of the zombie skeletons all over the ground. ——However, she suddenly said the unfavorable oath, and did not want to say it. Because her dream was once shattered by reality on the ground, this time, she doesn't want to take away other people's dreams, she will leave with her tragic past, and let her love dream stay on the ground; underground
she becomes her own The bride, without the promise of others, turns into a colorful blue butterfly. Instead of bubbles, without touching God, she moved herself.
Love separates them, again.
This time, she has a sublimated soul, flying to the moon. No more going back to the underground filled with stage lights or early expressionist film sets, no more the object of the corpse-loving Prince Charming in clay animation, no more clay animation puppets, no longer another beautiful specimen… ...
The blue butterfly carries a woman's dream! It also carries the dream of mankind! A woman's pelvis-shaped wings affect the yin and yang of life and death! Great "Zombie Girl"! Great Tim Burton! Long live the moon!
This animated film is an absolute theoretical hit-and-run. The puppet controls the director, the skeleton controls the body, the movie controls the audience, and the clay animation comes alive. Tim Burton deserves an award! Tim Burton should make money at the box office! The next one is even better! goodbye!
