Edwards Scissorhands

 

As Tim Burton’s previous masterpieces are being released in 4K, it was only a matter of time before one of his most beloved, now considered classics, made its way to our small screens in all its 4K glory. Edward Scissorhands, a character synonymous with director and actor alike, the film won us over with its bizarre charm and stylised design, one that could never really truly be replicated, except by the creator itself. Though we did get some version of this in a car advert during the Superbowl a few years back with Timothee Chalamet donning the scissorhands. The character made famous by Burton and Johnny Depp as the man himself, has been parodied, idolised by gothic millennial teens everywhere, especially at Halloween, but looking back at the film on its release on 4K, there is much more to be explored.
