Edward Scissorhands written by Tim Burton speaks the story of a fatal, cute, childish and sensitive young man who is confused by the surrounding people, but terrible - with scissors weapons, those who are holding it. Many viewers may consider this movie to be a fairy tale of the type "Tim Burton" including alternatives and romance. But by introducing a moral scene into this movie, Burton promotes the theme of more serious social criticism by establishing an understanding of two different lives in the movie.
Mise en scene is used in "Scissors Edward" to explain Burton's vulnerability to complicated reviews and relationships in the world. The colorful environment and dark light, especially the shadow of the attic in the narrow staircase ruins not only reflects Edward's isolation but also the warning against Barton's prejudiced society. The color is used to express the difference between good and evil soon, the kitsch of the Florida community The pallet of the 1950s is a very bright color showing safety and normality. This is juxtaposed with Edward's dark, twisted mansion, but ironically, Burton later showed something ugly and horrible to the local community than to ghosts Edward; his unforgettable appearance and despair A castle hides his childish innocence and a great heart
The use of clothes and makeup in the scene is also used to make the foundation of the story, Edward Scissorhands clothing and makeup are used to create emotions to the audience. There is a clear contrast between what Edwards can see and wears, what people see and what they wear. I think that clothes should guide the audience to understand what role they will play. We should first judge the role based on their appearance. Humans are wearing typical 1950s style, so outside looks very simple. Women's clothing is very bright and colorful. Their style looks very primitive and appropriate. Most men are wearing work or casual clothes. I think that the color to be used should produce the view that the public is very ordinary and it seems that everything is going well. Female Accent Make to stand out appearance
