Episode 28: Edward Scissorhands

Published: Dec. 31, 2015, 9:50 p.m.

\xa0 As the year ends, we have one last holiday gift to unwrap. Corinne and Tim come down from their high castle to talk about Tim Burton's fairy tale Edward Scissorhands from 1990. We'll discuss Burton's forays into magical realism, how the film illustrates the relationship between the artist and mainstream society, and the viability of a cookie-based economy. Warning: Contains explicit language, spoilers, and lots of sniffly noises (I had a cold. Sorry.) \xa0 Our theme song is "Nostalgia TV" by Edward Jonathan Blakeley through Lynne Publishing.
