About this product

Product Information

In Tim Burton's EDWARD SCISSORHANDS, a suburban fairy tale with incredibly imaginative sets, an Avon lady, Peg Boggs (Dianne Wiest), discovers the half-finished experiment--a man/monster named Edward (Johnny Depp)--of a mad scientist (played magically by Vincent Price) living in the neighborhood's old abandoned castle. The scientist died before replacing the shy man's large shears with real hands. When Peg attempts to bring Edward into her suburban world, to live among her skeptical family (husband Alan Arkin and daughter Winona Ryder) and gossipy neighbors, his hands--dangerous yet capable of creating things of great beauty--make for some awkward, funny, and poignant situations: Edward as a topiary gardener, Edward as a cutting-edge hair stylist. EDWARD SCISSORHANDS is a story about tolerance, difference, and creativity as much as it is a story of a young man's coming of age (the young man in question is, of course, a monster). In the ironically surreal world of Edward's suburban community, he must try to find his place in it, and in the world at large.

Fairy Tale Story With Modern Parallels
Tim Burton is a strange character, and he has a different sort of mind. But in that mind there is a lot of brilliance. He has brought us a lot of fantasy type movies and movies that make us just go "What was he thinking?". That's definitely not a bad thing as he has given us gems like A Nightmare Before Christmas, Corpse Bride, Big Fish, and Edward Scissorhands. Edward Scissorhands is a story about a scientist (played by Vincent Price) who makes a boy but dies before he can put the boy's hands on him, so he still just has scissors for hands. Later an Avon lady comes to call on the house where the boy, Edward (played by Johnny Depp), lives. She sees that he is all by himself, so she brings him home with her to live with her family. They find that he is a very shy but talented boy. He can do many different things with his scissors that others can't, like do hedgework, cut hair on dogs and humans, and ice sculpt. But his scissorhands also make certain things for him very difficult, like eating and shaking hands. He is viewed as eccentric for a while, then he is viewed as an outsider and people want him to leave. Edward Scissorhands is kind of parallel for me in my life. When I was younger, a family from Laos moved into our neighborhood. It was a small town with mostly white people. The town hadn't really had an Asian family in their midst before, and many people didn't know how to react. But after seeing Edward Scissorhands, I realized how this movie was similar to that. I got to know an Asian boy from the family who was the same age as me. Like Edward, he was eager to learn about all the things that were going on around him. He was fascinated with things that we took for granted. But he also brought in some culture to me that I had never experienced before like martial arts and other artwork that was native to him. To the few friends he had, he was a marvel. But to most of the town he was weird and an outsider. Sadly, the family left town after a few years, but the impression that he left on me was lifelong. Same thing kind of applies with Edward Scissorhands. He was a misunderstood outsider to everyone except those closest to him, and when he went back to the place where he came from, those closest to him were hurt. I definitely recommend this movie to everyone. It's a comedy, but also a sort of tragic love story at the same time. But it's not too sappy to be labeled a chick flick. It's not a realistic story, but it's a story that shows us the morality of how we should treat others regardless of how different they are.Read full review

Edward Scissorhands ,a lasting fable.
As a fairly recent admirer of Johnny Depp's extensive abilities, I am endeavoring to build a collection of my favorites of his many fine films. I was busy with a career of my own when 21 Jump Street and all the attendant hoopla about his off-screen "performances" was outweighing some people's opinions of his artistic talent. In fact, when I mentioned one of his films to a friend in my own age range (senior) I was told he waould not watch Depp's work because he diapproved of his behavior. In recent years, it seems to me, that his offscreen life is certainly his own to live and he appears to be a serious family man. Dismissing all of this, I find each of his films to be exceptional, with great depth of character delineation and with no need to capitalize on his striking personal charisma. Edward Scissorhands certainly ignores his physical beauty and concentrates on his amazing artistic intelligence. The director, Tim Burton, has a wonderfully off-center way of observing and presenting a story to the viewer. Enjoy this modern fairy tale and let it be the beginning of an exciting journey through the many characters created by a phenomenally gifted actor named Johnny Depp. You won't be sorry!Read full review

Amazing.
Since I'm replacing all of my VHS movies to DVDs, I am SO glad that I found a great copy on eBay! This is one of my all time favorite Tim Burton movies!! It's such a heartwarming, endearing story about a "unfinished man" with scissors for hands but a huge heart full of love and understanding. The film is quite quirky (That's Tim for ya) which makes it an exceptionally great film that can (and will) be watched over and over. Johnny and Winona are the main reasons to purchase this, they will melt your heart. I also enjoyed the gorgeous scenery and Edwards art. So beautiful A MUST BUY!!
