Triple Feature: Edward Scissorhands/Mars Attacks/Dark Shadows

from Radulich in Broadcasting Hosted by Mark Radulich

Tonight we’re diving into the gothic playground of Tim Burton — a director whose fingerprints are carved deep into American pop culture. From Edward Scissorhands, Burton’s bittersweet suburban fairy tale about isolation and artistry, to Mars Attacks!, his anarchic send-up of mid-century sci-fi and political hubris, and finally Dark Shadows, his nostalgic monster mash of style over sincerity — this lineup traces the arc of a filmmaker both trapped and liberated by his own aesthetic. It’s a look at how Burton went from misunderstood romantic to self-parody, and how, even now, his best work still feels like the dream of an outcast who never quite came down.
