Edward Scissorhands
Plot
The film opens with an elderly woman reciting a story of a man named Edward (Johnny Depp), the creation of an inventor (Vincent Price), who unfortunately died before he could give Edward hands. Later scenes show that this inventor had been inspired to make an artificial man by the anthropomorphic appearance of his other inventions. He had raised Edward as his son and tutored him in various subjects, but died of a cardiac arrest while in the act of offering a pair of hands to Edward.
In a flashback immediately following the opening, local Avon saleswoman Peg Boggs (Wiest) fails to make any profits in her neighborhood. Driven by a whim, she visits a pseudo-medieval mansion on a hill. Once inside, she finds Edward, a friendless, pallid youth having scissors in place of hands. She decides to take him home and adopts him into her family. Thus, Edward is forced to adjust to new surroundings. He quickly befriends Peg's son, Kevin (Robert Oliveri) and after an initial misstep, her daughter Kim (Winona Ryder).
Peg's conformist neighbors, while initially curious of her visitor, become thrilled at Ed's masterful skills at hedge clipping and haircutting. However, two of the townspeople — a religious fanatic named Esmeralda (O-Lan Jones) and Kim's thuggish boyfriend Jim (Anthony Michael Hall) — dislike him immediately. The resident town slattern, Joyce (Kathy Baker) suggests that Edward opens a haircutting salon with her, as a ruse to pull him aside from the others. While examining a proposed site, she attempts to sece him — confusing Edward, who escapes the room in a state of panic. Edward attempts to bring up the subject of her actions while the family is having dinner, but no one reacts to the news.
Wanting money for a van, Jim takes advantage of Edward's ability to pick locks and breaks into his own home. The burglar alarm sounds, and all but Edward escape, over Kim's furious protest. Edward is arrested, but is scheled to be released when a psychological examination reveals that his isolation had allowed him to live without a traditional sense of ethics. The arresting officer, Allen, befriends the timid Edward, sensing his intrinsic goodness.
Shortly thereafter, Peg's husband Bill (Alan Arkin) tests Edward's moral code and asks Edward about what to do if he finds a briefcase full of money. Edward, not thinking about whence the money came or realizing it might have an owner, selflessly declares that he would give all the money to his loved ones. Bill tells Edward that this is not morally right, but Kim defends Edward, saying it is the kindest choice. Humiliated at the earlier rejection, Joyce tries to claim that Edward tried to rape her. Many of the neighbors begin to gossip and slowly turn against Edward. During Christmas, Edward is therefore ostracized and disliked by almost everyone around him except his hosts, thus making him an outcast.
While the family is preparing for Christmas decorations, Edward is carving an ice sculpture from a block of ice. The ice shavings create effect of precipitating snow, under which Kim dances. Jim, passing by, catches Kim's attention, whereupon Edward, unaware of her presence, turns around and accidentally cuts Kim's hand. Jim assumes that Edward deliberately harmed her, and uses this as a pretext to attack Edward in a jealous rage. The situation worsens when Kevin is almost run over by Jim's drunken friend, who is driving their van. Edward, seeing Kevin in danger, pushes him out of it, mistakenly cutting his face. In the confusion, the neighbors (including some of Kim's family) misunderstand the situation, thinking Edward attacked Kevin. They form an angry mob and pursue him to his creator's hill-top mansion (a reference to the climax of Frankenstein). Officer Allen, out of concern for Edward, attempts to turn back the mob by giving them the impression that Edward is dead, but the neighbors do not believe this and are outraged that Officer Allen let him go. They continue to the mansion, presumably to kill Edward themselves in order to bring justice to their own hands or to see if Officer Allen really did kill Edward.
Kim, who also refuses to believe that Edward's dead, hastens to enter the mansion. There, she reunites with Edward. Jim follows them and attacks both, one after the other. During the fight, Edward refuses to retaliate until he sees Kim in danger. Connecting his previous experiences in his mind, Edward uses his sharp fingers to kill Jim, who falls out of a window. Recovering, Kim kisses Edward on the mouth, whispering that she loves him, and goes out to meet the mob, who have assembled near Jim's corpse. Kim seizes a scissored implement from the nearby machines and presents it as proof that Edward and Jim have killed each other. All the neighbors (presumably either relieved, a little depressed that they didn't get to kill Edward, or guilty that they tried to kill him) then return home.
The elderly woman from the beginning of the movie reappears, telling her granddaughter the story. When the granddaughter asks her of Edward's fate, she says she believes that Edward is still alive in the castle. She supports her assertion with the statement that before Edward came, snow never fell on the valley, but has come ever since his departure. The old lady attributes the snow to Edward and remarks that she still dances in it, revealing that she is a significantly older Kim. The granddaughter questions Kim as to why she did not return to visit Edward, and receives the reply that she (Kim) wants Edward to remember her the way she was. Viewers then see Edward, apparently unchanged, creating an ice sculpture in chilled chambers of his mansion. He is surrounded by other ice-sculptures that he has created, including one of a girl dancing. As Edward works, the flurry of ice shavings is thrown, presumably by Edward himself, onto the valley and onto the town below.
