Edward Scissorhands [SEP] Development
The genesis of "Edward Scissorhands" came from a drawing by then-teenaged director Tim Burton, which reflected his feelings of isolation and being unable to communicate to people around him in suburban Burbank. The drawing depicted a thin, solemn man with long, sharp blades for fingers. Burton stated that he was often alone and had trouble retaining friendships. "I get the feeling people just got this urge to want to leave me alone for some reason, I don't know exactly why." During pre-production of "Beetlejuice", Burton hired Caroline Thompson, then a young novelist, to write the "Edward Scissorhands" screenplay as a spec script.
