Edward Scissorhands ( Human vs. Society/ Human vs. Himself)
Directed by Tim Burton
Review by Aurora, Wang Yi
When the
people get older and older, they start to lose something for gain. They become
normal in the society. Edward is different, though he cannot change his special
and live in the community.
I remember
the first time he come to the town. Nobody understands him. Maybe they just use
their own sense to understand him. People think he is a monster or a genius.
However, they are wrong. Edward is just a pure soul. He does not know the relationship
between people, emotion of people and the right way to love and take care of
others. This is his love, always hurt. That is all. So what? He has not got the
base to love and future to live. So he cannot say “I love you, too.” “ I can’t”
and “Goodbye” are the only words. This is the reality.
On the
interview, one audience asked, “If you had regular hands, you would be like
anyone else.” Peggy answered, “No matter what, Edward will always be special.”
I think it is not. Edward is special because his cannot give his scissorhands
away. During growing up time, we always give up a lot of things such as perseverance,
dream and “scissorhands”. Then we cannot cut these nice shapes. No scissorhands,
no Edward. So Edward answered, “ Yes, I know”
At the end,
Kim said, “I would rather he remember me the way I was.” So what we need
remember?

I watched this movie too! I like how you mentioned Peg's response as "No matter what, Edward will always be special"; however, I think this is true. Everyone is special in their own sort of way and I don't think he has to keep his scissor hands to stay special.
