Watching Edward Scissorhands for the first time tonight

[timepiececlock]

"Well, a long time ago, an inventor lived in that mansion. He made many things, I suppose. He also created a man. He gave him inside, a heart, a brain, everything. Well, almost everything. You see, the inventor was very old. He died before he got to finish the man he invented. So the man was left by himself, incomplete and all alone."

"He didn't have a name?"

"Of course, he had a name. His name was Edward."


And just like that, I'm reminded of the interview I read that said Edward Elric of Fullmetal Alchemist was named after Edward Scissorhands. And I smile.

Neat!

So finally getting around to Edward Scissorhands. What did you think?

Guess this isn't the best time for me to make my comment about Tim Burton. "He's the most overrated director ever." And the man made one of my all-time favorite flicks, Ed Wood.
