I love films, so for me it only seems natural to talk about Tim Burton. As a director Tim Burton in many of his films Tim looks at suburbia and how strange events can take place in them. Edward scissorhands takes place in such a setting, but Edward is a metaphor of how when a boy goes through puberty they get new feelings that they can be quite afraid of. Burton uses a character with scissors for hands to show someone who’s afraid to touch or get close to anyone else.
The ways this film, and mostly all of burtons films, are filmed uses a contrast of very colourful scenes and then others which are very grey and dismal. Burton nearly always uses the unobvious grey scenes to represent either the here and now, and uses colourful scenes to show a flash back or something that couldn’t be and is fantasy-like. The stock motion film “corpse bride” Burton creates a colourful world of the “dead” whereas the “living” is more tones of colours.
Tim also writes poetry which lead him to write a book called “the melancholy death of oyster boy” his poems are usually short and quirky, and use dark metaphors in a contrast of light settings.
