This heartbreaking and highly original parable on conformity casts Johnny Depp as a social misfit who’s taken in by Diane Wiest to live in her “average suburban household” where he falls in love for the first time, becomes all the rage as a hairdresser to the neighborhood’s wives, and learns the high cost of societal conventions. Tim Burton has fashioned in this beautifully filmed and comic fantasy the ultimate tale of the outsider as misunderstood and victimized innocent. This film will be screened on DVD.
